0B-16 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
3) Check steering linkage for looseness and damage. Repair or
replace defective parts, if any.
4) Check boots (1) and (2) of steering linkage and steering gear
case for damage (leak, detachment, tear, etc.). If damage is
found, replace defective boot with new one.
If any dent is found on steering gear case boots, correct it to
original shape by turning steering wheel to the right or left as
far as it stops and holding it for a few seconds.
5) Check universal joints (3) of steering shaft for rattle and
damage. If rattle or damage is found, replace defective part
with a new one.
6) Check that steering wheel can be turned fully to the right and
left. Repair or replace defective parts, if any.
7) If equipped with power steering system, check also, in addi-
tion to above check items, that steering wheel can be turned
fully to the right and left more lightly when engine is running
at idle speed than when it is stopped. Repair, if found faulty.
8) Check wheel alignment referring to Section 3A.
DRIVE SHAFT (AXLE) BOOTS / PROPELLER SHAFTS
(4WD)
DRIVE SHAFT (AXLE) BOOTS INSPECTION
Check drive shaft boots (wheel side and differential side) for
leaks, detachment, tear or other damage.
Replace boot as necessary.
PROPELLER SHAFTS (4WD) INSPECTION
1) Check propeller shaft connecting bolts for looseness. If
looseness is found, tighten to specified torque.
2) Check propeller shaft joints for wear, play and damage.
If any defect is found, replace.
3) Check propeller shaft center support for biting of foreign mat-
ter, crack, abnormal noise and damage. If any defect is
found, replace.

MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 0B-21
STEERING
Check to ensure that steering wheel is free from instability, or abnormally heavy feeling.
Check that the vehicle does not wander or pull to one side.
ENGINE
Check that engine responds readily at all speeds.
Check that engine is free from abnormal noise and abnormal vibration.
BODY, WHEELS AND POWER TRANSMITTING SYSTEM
Check that body, wheels and power transmitting system are free from abnormal noise and abnormal vibration or
any other abnormal condition.
METERS AND GAUGE
Check that speedometer, odometer, fuel meter, temperature gauge, etc. are operating accurately.
LIGHTS
Check that all lights operate properly.
WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER
Periodically check that air comes out from defroster outlet when operating heater or air conditioning.
Set mode control lever to defroster position and fan switch lever to “HI” position for this check.
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS

Key lock cylinder Spray lubricant

1B-36 AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL)
A/C SWITCH
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Refer to “HEATER CONTROL ASSEMBLY” in Section 1A.
INSPECTION
Press A/C switch button and check if there is continuity
between terminals “A” and “B”.
Connect battery voltage (+) to terminal “C” and (–) to termi-
nal “A”, and then press A/C Switch button and check if indi-
cator lamp lights.
RADIATOR/CONDENSER COOLING FAN
MOTOR RELAY No.1, No.2 and No.3
INSPECTION
Refer to “RADIATOR FAN RELAY” in Section 6B.
COMPRESSOR
REMOVAL
1) Run engine at idle speed with air conditioning ON for 10 min-
utes. After that stop the engine.
2) Disconnect negative (–) cable at battery.
3) Recover refrigerant from refrigeration system by referring to
“RECOVERY” in this section.
4) Remove front bumper by referring to “FRONT BUMPER” in
Section 8.
5) Remove engine food cover (1) from vehicle body.
NOTE:
The amount of removed compressor oil must be mea-
sured for replenishing compressor oil.

3B1-4 ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING (P/S) SYSTEM
DIAGNOSIS
The P/S system in this vehicle is controlled by P/S control module. P/S control module has an on-board diagnos-
tic system which detects a malfunction in this system.
When diagnosing troubles, be sure to have full understanding of the outline of “ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYS-
TEM” and each item in “PRECAUTION IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLE” and execute diagnosis according to “SYS-
TEM CHECK FLOW TABLE”.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
P/S control module performs on-board diagnosis (self-diagnosis)
on the system and operates “EPS” warning lamp (1) (malfunction
indicator lamp) as follows.
Malfunction indicator lamp (“EPS” warning lamp) lights when
the ignition switch is turned to ON position (but the engine at
stop) regardless of the condition of P/S control system. This
is only to check the malfunction indicator lamp (“EPS” warn-
ing lamp) bulb and its circuit.
If the areas monitored by P/S control module is free from any
trouble after the engine start (while engine is running), mal-
function indicator lamp (“EPS” warning lamp) turns OFF.
When P/S control module detects a trouble which has
occurred in the areas it monitors, malfunction indicator lamp
(“EPS” warning lamp) turns ON while the engine is running
to warn the driver of such occurrence of trouble and at the
same time it stores the exact trouble area in memory inside
of P/S control module.
PRECAUTIONS IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLES
Take a note of DTC indicated first.
Be sure to read “PRECAUTIONS FOR ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT SERVICE” in Section 0A before inspection
and observe what is written there.
When two or more troubles have occurred, their DTCs are indicated 3 times each starting with the smallest
code number and up.
DTC C1122 (DTC No.22) (engine speed signal failure) is indicated when ignition switch is ON position and
engine is not running but if indication changes to a normal one when engine is started, it means nothing
abnormal.
As DTC is stored in memory of P/S control module, be sure to clear memory after repair by performing the
procedure described in “DTC CLEARANCE”.

ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING (P/S) SYSTEM 3B1-7
CUSTOMER QUESTIONNAIRE (EXAMPLE)
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP
(“EPS” WARNING LAMP) CHECK
1) Turn ignition switch to ON position (but without running
engine), check that malfunction indicator lamp (“EPS” warn-
ing lamp) lights up. If lamp does not light up, go to “TABLE
A”. If lamp flashes, go to “TABLE B”.
2) Start engine and check that malfunction indictor lamp
(“CHECK ENGIE” light) turns OFF.
If lamp comes OFF, P/S system is in good condition.
