The invention provides a steering resetting method for an aircraft undercarriage that includes a leg in which a steerable bottom portion is mounted to slide against a suspension force generated by a shock absorber, the undercarriage being provided with a controllable steering member for causing the steerable bottom portion to swivel in response to an angular position setpoint, the undercarriage also including at least one angular position sensor adapted to generate an electrical signal representative of the angular position of the steerable bottom portion and suitable for use in controlling the steering member; the method comprises the step, performed when the steerable bottom portion is in an indexed angular position while the aircraft is in flight and the undercarriage is fully extended, of setting the electrical signal from the sensor to a determined reset value.
