DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION AND PROCEDURES
POWER STEERING SYSTEM
PRESSURE TEST
Tools Required
124 589 06 21 00 Power Steering Pump Testing Unit
Check the fluid pressure as follow to trouble is in the
pump or gear unit.
Test Procedure
1. Disconnect the pressure hose from the oil pump
and connect a pressure gauge between the oil
pump and pressure hose.
2. Bleed the system. Start the engine and turn the
steering wheel form lock several times until oil
temperature is up to 50 °C.
3. Run the engine at 1,000 rpm.
4. Close the gauge valve fully, and read pressure.
The pump pressure with the valve closed should
be between 7,355 kPa to 8,041 kPa (1,067 psi to
1,166 psi).
Notice: Do not keep the valve closed for more
than 10 seconds.
5. Remove the pressure gauge and connect the pres-
sure hose.
6. Do bleeding procedure.
POWER STEERING SYSTEM
LEAK TEST
General Procedure
Inspect the following :
The power steering fluid reservoir for overfill.
Fluid for aeration and overflow.
The hoses for loose connections.
The torsion bar, stub shaft and adjuster seals for
leaks.
The component sealing surfaces for damage.
Important: Verify the exact point of the leak. The point
from which the fluid is dripping is not necessarily the
point at which the system is leaking. When service is
required, clean the leak area upon disassembly,
replace the leaking seal, check the component sealing
surfaces for damage and reset the torque bolt to
specifications required.
External Leak Check
The purpose of this procedure is to pinpoint the location
of the leak. In some cases, the leak can be easily lo-
cated, but seepage-type leaks may be harder to find.
To locate seepage leaks, use the following method:
1. With the engine off, wipe dry the complete power
steering system.
2. Check the power steering fluid level in the pump’s
reservoir. Adjust the fluid level as necessary.
Refer to “Checking and Adding Fluid” in this
section.
Notice: Do not hold the steering wheel at a stop
for any length of time as this can damage the
power steering pump.
3. Start the engine. Turn the steering wheel counter-
clockwise and clockwise from stop to stop several
times.
4. Find the exact area of the leak and repair it.

9E-2 INSTRUMENTATION, DRIVER INFORMATION
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
CIGAR LIGHTER
The cigar lighter is located in the front portion of the
floor console. To use the lighter, push it in completely.
When the lighter is hot, it will release itsef from contact
with the heating element. The lighter and the heating
element can be damaged if the lighter does not fully
release itsef from the heating element.
ASHTRAY
The ashtray is located in the console. To access the
ashtray, pullit out of the ashtray housing. The ashtray
lamp will go on when the parking lamps or headlamps
are turned on.
INSTRUMENT PANEL VENTS
The center and the side vents in the instrument panel
can be adjusted up and down and from side to side.
The side vents can also be aimed toward the side
windows to defog them.
GLOVE BOX
The glove box can be opened by pulling upon the latch
handle.
DIGITAL CLOCK
The digital clock is located in the instrument cluster.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
The instrument cluster is located above the steering
column and in the instrument cluster trim panel. The
instrument cluster contains the instruments that
provide the driver with vehicle performance information.
The instrument cluster contains a speedometer, a
tachometer, an odometer, a trip odometer, a
temperature gauge, a fuel gauge, and several indicator
lamps. For replacement of the indicator lamp bulbs
contained in the instrument cluster, refer to “Instrument
Cluster Indicator Lamps Specifications” in the section.
SPEEDOMETER AND
TACHOMETER
The speedometer measures the speed of the vehicle
in km/h (with mph) or mph (with km/h). It consists of
an instrument cluster gauge connected to the vehicle
speed sensor on the transaxle output shaft. The
tachometer measures the engine’s speed in terms of
thousands of revolutions per minute. It consists of an
instrument cluster gauge connected to a sending unit
in the engine con-trol module. Do not operate the
engine in the red zone. Engine damage may occur.
TRIP ODOMETER
The trip odometer measures the distance the vehicle
has traveled since it was last reset. It consists of an
instrument cluster gauge connected to the sending unit
on the tasnsaxle output shaft. The trip oddometer can
be record the distance traveled from any starting point.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge consists of an instrument cluster gauge
connected to a sending unit in the fuel tank. The fuel
gauge indicates the quantity of fuel in the tank only
when the ignition is turned to ON or ACC. When the
ignition is turned to LOCK or START, the pointer may
come to rest at any position.
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The temperature gauge consists of an instrument
cluster gauge connected to a temperature sensor that
is in con-tact with the circulating engine coolant. The
temperature gauge indicates the temperature of the
coolant. Prolonged driving or idling in very hot weather
may cause the pointer to move beyond the center of
the gauge. The engine is overheating if the pointer
moves into the red zone at the upper limit of the gauge.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
INDICATOR LAMPS
The instrument cluster contains indicator lamps that
indicatethe functioning of certain systems or the
existenceof potential problems with the operation of
the vehicle. The indicator lamps are replaceable. For
replacement of the indicator lamps contained in the
instrument cluster, refer to “instrument cluster indicator
lamps specifications” in this section.
CHIME MODULE
The chime module will sound to bring attention to one
or more of the following conditions:
The lights are on and the ignition not in ACC, ON,
or START.
The ignition key is in the ignition switch when the
driver’s side door is open.
The seat belt is unbuckled when the ignition is in
ACC, ON, or START.
Voltage is supplied at all times through the fuse block
to power the chime module.
