POWER STEERING GEAR AND LINKAGE
• Before performing disassembly, clean steering gear assembly with kerosene. Be careful not to bring
any kerosene into contact with the discharge and return port connectors.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove cylinder tubes from gear housing assembly.
2. Loosen lock nuts of outer sockets, and remove outer sockets.
3. Remove boot clamps of the small diameter side and the large diameter side, then remove boot.
CAUTION:
When removing boots, be careful not to damage inner socket and gear housing assembly. If they
are damaged, change them to avoid oil leaks.
4. Remove inner sockets.
INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Boot
Check boot for tears, cracks and deformation. Replace if necessary.
Gear Housing Assembly
Check gear housing assembly for dents, cracks or damage. Replace as an assembly if necessary.
Outer Socket and Inner Socket
SWING TORQUE
• Measure the swing torque, using Tool. When ball stud and inner
socket start moving the measured value must be within the specifi-
cation. If the reading is outside the specification, replace the
socket.
ROTATING TORQUE• Measure the rotating torque, using Tool. If the value is outside the
specification, replace the outer sockets.

CHECKING RELIEF OIL PRESSURE
CAUTION:
Before starting work, confirm belt tension is proper.
1. Connect Tool between oil pump discharge connector and high
pressure hose and then bleed air from the hydraulic circuit.
2. Start engine. Allow engine to run until tank temperature reaches 50 – 80°C (122 – 176°F).
CAUTION:
• Warm up engine with shut-off valve fully opened. If engine is started with shut-off valve closed,
fluid pressure in power steering pump increases to maximum. This will raise fluid temperature
excessively.
• Be careful not to contact hose with belt when engine is started.
3. With engine at idle, close shut-off valve and read the relief oil pressure.
CAUTION:
Do not close shut-off valve of pressure gauge for more than 10 seconds.
4. After measurement, open shut-off valve slowly.
• If relief oil pressure is outside the specification, repair or replace oil pump. Refer to PS-22, "
Disassembly
and Assembly" .
5. After inspection, disconnect oil pressure gauge and oil pressure gauge adapter from hydraulic circuit, con-
nect oil pump discharge connector and high pressure hose. Add fluid and bleed air from hydraulic circuit
thoroughly. Refer to PS-6, "
Air Bleeding Hydraulic System" .
Removal and InstallationINFOID:0000000003532832
REMOVAL
1. Drain power steering fluid from reservoir tank.
2. Remove engine room cover. Refer to EM-12, "
Removal and Installation" .
3. Remove air duct assembly. Refer to EM-15, "
Removal and Installation" .
4. Remove power steering reservoir tank.
5. Remove serpentine drive belt belt from auto tensioner and power steering pump. Refer to EM-13,
"Removal and Installation" .
6. Disconnect pressure sensor electrical connector.
7. Remove high pressure and low pressure piping from power steering oil pump. Refer to PS-23
.
8. Remove mounting bolts, then remove power steering pump.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal. Refer to PS-23 for tightening torque.

HYDRAULIC LINE
• Confirm mating marks are aligned with hose and clamp, then cor-

• To install eye joint, align projection of eye joint with notch of power
steering pump, and attach eye joint to power steering pump prop-
erly. Tighten eye bolt by hand fully, then torque to specification.

PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000003533088
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SRS section.
• Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PrecautionINFOID:0000000003533089
• Disconnect both battery cables in advance.
• Never tamper with or force air bag lid open, as this may adversely affect air bag performance.
• Be careful not to scratch pad and other parts.
• When removing or disassembling any part, be careful not to damage or deform it. Protect parts which may
get in the way with cloth.
• When removing parts with a screwdriver or other tool, protect parts by wrapping them with vinyl or tape.
• Keep removed parts protected with cloth.
• If a clip is deformed or damaged, replace it.
• If an unreusable part is removed, replace it with a new one.
• Tighten bolts and nuts firmly to the specified torque.
• After re-assembly has been completed, make sure each part functions correctly.
• Remove stains in the following way.
Water-soluble stains:
Dip a soft cloth in warm water, and then squeeze it tightly. After wiping the stain, wipe with a soft dry cloth.
Oil stain:
Dissolve a synthetic detergent in warm water (density of 2 to 3% or less), dip the cloth, then clean off the stain
with the cloth. Next, dip the cloth in fresh water and squeeze it tightly. Then clean off the detergent completely.
Then wipe the area with a soft dry cloth.
• Do not use any organic solvent, such as thinner or benzine.
