1. Turn the front wheels to the straight ahead position.
2. Measure how far you can turn the steering wheel
left and right without moving the front wheels.
If the play is within the limit, the steering gearbox and steering linkage are OK.
If the play exceeds the limit, adjust the rack guide (see page 17-15). If the play is still excessive after
rack guide adjustment, inspect the steering
linkage and steering gearbox (see page 17-5). NOTE: This test should be done with original equipment
tires and wheels at the correct tire pressure.
1. Start the engine, and let it idle.
2. Attach a commercially available spring scale to the steering wheel. With the engine idling and the
vehicle on a clean, dry floor, pull the scale as
shown, and read it as soon as the tires begin to turn.
3. Ifthescalereadsnomorethan34N(3.5kgf,7.7lbf), the power assist is OK. If it reads more, check these
items:
Steering linkage (see page 17-5)
Rack guide adjustment (see page 17-15)
EPS system (see page 17-19)
