Start the engine and let it idle.
Turn the stee.ing wheel from lock-to-lock several
times to warm the fluid to operating temperature.
Measure steady-state fluid pressure while idling
with the shut-off valve fully open. lf the pump is in
good condition, the gauge should read less than
1500 kpa (15 kgf/cm,,213 psi).
lf it reads high, check the feed line or valve body
unit (see General Troubleshooting l7-10).
Close the shut-off valve. then close the pressure
control valve gradually until the pressure gauge
needle is stabl6, Read the pressure.
lmmediately open the shut-off valve fully.
CAUTION: Do not keep the shut-ott valvs closod
moro thgn 5 soconds or th9 pump could b6 dam"

lf the pump is in good condition, the gauge should
read at least 6.400 - 7,400 kpa (65 - 75 kgIlcm,,924- 1,067 psi). A low reading means pump output is
too low for full assist. Repair or replace the pump.
