General Operation
The control module self–diagnoses SSPS system. If there
is any malfunction, the warning lamp comes ON and at the
same time a trouble code is set. The trouble code can be
retrieved or cleared only by SCANTOOL.
In normal condition, If the ignition is turned on, the warning
lamp comes on for the first 2 sec and out. During this 2 sec,
the control module is diagnosing SSPS system, so a driver
can feel a little heavy steering effort.
If the warning lamp stays on after the 2 sec or comes on
afterward, it means there is a malfunction and a related
trouble code is recorded.
The warning lamp once come on does not go off even if the
malfunction is cleared. It goes off after ignition is turned off
and on without a malfunction.However the trouble code still remains in the control mod-
ule.

NSm (18 lb–ft).
10. Connect the power steering gear fluid inlet and out-
let pipe.
Tighten
Tighten the steering gear inlet and outlet pipe fitting
to 28 NSm (21 lb–ft).
11. Perform a front toe adjustment. Refer to Section
2B, Wheel Alignment.
12. Install the wheels. Refer to Section 2E, Tires and

Ahead Check” in this section.
Notice : When adding fluid or making a complete fluid
change, always use power steering fluid DEXRON®–II or
III or equivalent. Failure to use the proper fluid will cause
hose and seal damage and fluid leaks.
15. Refill the power steering system and check for
leaks. If leaks are found, correct the cause of the
leak and bleed the system. Refer to Section 6A,
Power Steering System.
16. Connect the negative battery cable.
