STEERING
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 57-5
Description
General
The major steering components comprise an impact absorbing telescopic steering column, a Power Assisted Steering
(PAS) box, a PAS pump, and fluid reservoir. Hydraulic fluid from the fluid reservoir is filtered and then supplied
through the suction line to the inlet on the PAS pump. The PAS pump supplies fluid to the steering box through a
pressure line routed above the front cross member. Fluid returns to the reservoir along the same route through a
return line. On LH drive vehicles the pipe route above the front cross member is still used, the length of pipe acting
as an oil cooler.
To minimise driver's injury in the event of an accident the steering system has a number of safety features including
a collapsible steering column. An additional safety feature is an air bag located in the steering wheel.

Steering column assembly and intermediate shaft
The steering column central shaft comprises of two shafts, the upper shaft is splined to accept the steering wheel and
located in bearings in the column tube. A universal joint is located on the bottom of the upper shaft, the joint allows
for angular movement between the upper and lower shafts. The lower shaft is made in two parts, the top section of
the lower shaft is located outside of the lower section. The two sections of the lower shaft are connected by two nylon
injection moulded shear pins. The lower shaft goes through a lower bearing attached to the bulkhead, the lower shaft
is connected by a universal joint to the intermediate shaft in the engine compartment.
Steering column
An upper column tube provides for the location of the steering lock and ignition switch and also the steering switch
gear and a rotary coupler. The rotary coupler provides the electrical connection for the steering wheel mounted airbag,
switches and horn. The upper mounting bracket has two slots, a slotted metal bracket is held in each slot by four resin
shear pins.
The column is mounted on four captive studs which are located on a column mounting bracket. The captive studs
pass through the metal brackets, locknuts secure the steering column to the bulkhead. The two lower mountings are
fixed and cannot move when loads are applied to them. The upper mounting is designed to disengage or deform when
a load is applied, allowing the column to collapse in the event of an accident. The steering column must be replaced
as a complete assembly if necessary.
When an axial load is applied to the upper column tube, energy absorption is achieved by the following mechanism:
lthe mounting bracket deforms,
lthe resin shear pins holding the slotted metal brackets shear,
lthe top mounting bracket slides out of the slotted metal brackets.
The slotted metal brackets remain on the captive studs on the bulkhead. If the column mounting moves, injection
moulded shear pins retaining the two sections of the lower column shaft will shear. This allows the two sections of the
lower shaft to 'telescope' together.
In the event of a collision where the steering box itself moves, two universal joints in the column allow the intermediate
shaft to articulate, minimising movement of the column towards the driver. If movement continues energy absorption
is achieved by the following mechanism:
lthe decouple joint in the intermediate shaft will disengage,
lthe lower section of the steering column shaft will move through the lower bearing,
lthe injection moulded shear pins retaining the two sections of the lower column shaft will shear.
This allows the two sections of the lower shaft to 'telescope' together reducing further column intrusion. Protection to
the drivers face and upper torso is provided by an SRS airbag module located in the centre of the steering wheel.

FRONT SUSPENSION
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 60-17
The valve block directs hydraulic pressure to the actuators via solenoid operated directional control valves. A solenoid
operated pressure control valve regulates the required pressure to the actuators. The three valve solenoids are
controlled by signals received from the ACE ECU. A pressure transducer monitors the pressure delivered by the
pump. A replacable high pressure filter is installed into the lower face of the valve block and filters fluid before it
reaches the valves.
The valve block is located on the outside of the right hand chassis longitudinal. The valve block is secured to the
chassis with three bolts and rubber bushes. The rubber bushes isolate the valve block from the chassis, preventing
hydraulic noise from the valve block transmitting through the chassis and body.
The two solenoid operated directional control valves (DCV's) are fitted to ports in the top face of the valve block. The
DCV's are screwed into the valve block and sealed with O ring seals. Each DCV has a solenoid for electrical operation
of the valve. The solenoid is sealed to the DCV with two O ring and secured with a cap. The cap, coil and O rings are
serviceable items. The DCV's are non-serviceable and failure of a DCV requires the replacement of the valve block
assembly.
The pressure control valve is fitted to a port in the rear face of the valve block. The pressure control valve is screwed
into the valve block and sealed with O rings. The pressure control valve has a coil for electrical operation. The coil is
sealed to the pressure control valve with two O rings and secured with a cap. The cap, coil and O rings are serviceable
items. The pressure control valve is non-serviceable and failure requires replacement of the valve block assembly.
The pressure transducer is fitted to a port in the forward face of the valve block. The pressure transducer is screwed
into the valve block and sealed with an O ring seal. The pressure transducer is a serviceable item.
The high pressure filter locates in a port on the lower face of the valve block. The gauze and fibre filter is sealed in
the port with O ring seals. A threaded cap secures the filter in the valve block and is also sealed with an O ring seal.
A threaded hole on the lower face of the filter allows a bolt to be fitted to remove the filter from the port. If a system
component is replaced, the filter must be changed.
Four ports are located on the forward face of the valve block and two ports on the rear. Each port is fitted with a seal
pack which contains two O ring seals and backing rings. The ACE pipes locate and seal in the seal packs and are
secured to the valve block with the studs and nuts located on the forward and rear faces.
Actuators
Two actuators are used for the ACE system and are attached to the front and rear torsion bars. The actuators apply
hydraulically generated force to the torsion bar to oppose lateral forces caused by the vehicle cornering.
Each actuator is a conventional double-acting cylinder. A piston is attached to a rod and moves within the cylinder
when hydraulic pressure is applied. The rod is sealed at the point where it exits the cylinder. The outer end of the rod
is threaded and locates in a bush in the ACE long arm and secured with a nut. A rubber gaiter covers the rod and
prevents dirt and moisture from damaging the rod surface and cylinder seals. The cylinder has a forked attachment
which locates on the short arm bush and secured with a bolt and nut.
Two banjo connections provide for the attachment of the hydraulic hoses from the ACE valve block. The connections
provide hydraulic flow to each side of the piston to extend or retract the rod.

FBH fuel pump
The FBH fuel pump regulates the fuel supply to the FBH unit. The FBH fuel pump is installed in a rubber mounting on
the chassis crossmember immediately in front of the fuel tank. The pump is a self priming, solenoid operated plunger
pump, with a fixed displacement of 0.063 ml/Hz. The ECU in the FBH unit outputs a pulse width modulated signal to
control the operation of the pump. When the pump is de-energised, it provides a positive shut-off of the fuel supply to
the FBH unit.

9Fuel line connector
10Non return valve
The solenoid coil of the FBH fuel pump is installed around a housing which contains a plunger and piston. The piston
locates in a bush, and a spring is installed on the piston between the bush and the plunger. A filter insert and a fuel
line connector are installed in the inlet end of the housing. A non return valve and a fuel line connector are installed
in the fuel outlet end of the housing.
While the solenoid coil is de-energised, the spring holds the piston and plunger in the 'closed' position at the inlet end
of the housing. An 'O' ring seal on the plunger provides a fuel tight seal between the plunger and the filter insert,
preventing any flow through the pump. When the solenoid coil is energised, the piston and plunger move towards the
outlet end of the housing, until the plunger contacts the bush, and draw fuel in through the inlet connection and filter.
The initial movement of the piston also closes transverse drillings in the bush and isolates the pumping chamber at
the outlet end of the housing. Subsequent movement of the piston then forces fuel from the pumping chamber through
the non return valve and into the line to the FBH unit. When the solenoid coil de-energises, the spring moves the piston
and plunger back towards the closed position. As the piston and plunger move towards the closed position, fuel flows
passed the plunger and through the annular gaps and transverse holes in the bush to replenish the pumping chamber.
