POWER STEERING PUMP
FLUID COOLER
DESCRIPTION
The power steering fluid cooler is located at the
front of the vehicle. It is mounted to the radiator
lower support just forward of the air-conditioning
condenser and just rearward of the front fascia. The
cooler is positioned so it is in the air flow through the
front fascia of the vehicle (Fig. 5)
OPERATION
The purpose of the power steering fluid cooler is to
keep the temperature of the power steering system
fluid from rising to a level that would affect the per-
formance of the power steering system.
The cooler used on this vehicle is referred to as a
fluid-to-air type cooler. This means that the air flow
across the fin/tubes of the cooler is used to extract
the heat from the cooler which it has absorbed from
the power steering fluid flowing through it. The
cooler is placed in series with the power steering
fluid return line, between the steering gear and the
power steering fluid reservoir. This lowers the tem-
perature of the power steering fluid prior to it enter-
ing the power steering fluid reservoir where it is
resupplied to the power steering pump.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove the return line at the gear.
(2) Remove the return line at the reservoir.
(3) Remove the grille (Refer to 23 - BODY/EXTE-
RIOR/GRILLE - REMOVAL).
(4) Remove the two cooler mounting bolts. (Fig. 5)
(5) Remove the cooler from the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the cooler to the vehicle.
(2) Install the two cooler mounting bolts. (Fig. 5).
(3) Install the grille (Refer to 23 - BODY/EXTERI-
OR/GRILLE - INSTALLATION).
(4) Install the return line at the reservoir.
(5) Install the return line at the gear.
(6) Refill the power steering fluid and check for
leaks (Refer to 19 - STEERING/PUMP - STANDARD
PROCEDURE).

CONTROL SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a power sunroof utilize an
sunroof control switch. On this model, the sunroof
control switch is located in the overhead console, in
between the two reading lamps. The switch is
mounted in the overhead console with four plastic
retaining tabs, molded into the switch housing.
This switch incorporates four selections of opera-
tion open, auto open, close and vent. The individual
switches in the sunroof control switch unit cannot be
repaired. If one switch is damaged or faulty, the
entire sunroof control switch unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
With the operation of the sunroof control switch,
voltage is directed to the sunroof motor, through the
switch contacts or control module. If the control
switch is depressed and held depressed the voltage
signal is controlled manually through the switch con-
tacts, so when the switch is released the sunroof
stops.
Refer to the owners manual for more information
on the operation of the sunroof switch and system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
The following test will determine if the sunroof
control switch is operating properly.
(1) Remove the overhead console from the head-
liner (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CON-
SOLE - REMOVAL).
(2) Remove the sunroof control switch from the
overhead console (Refer to 23 - BODY/SUNROOF/
CONTROL SWITCH - REMOVAL).
(3) Using an ohmmeter, test the switch terminals
for proper continuity using the table below. If any ofthe terminals do not show proper continuity, replace
the sunroof control switch.
