REPAIR OF REFRIGERANT LEAKS
Refrigerant Line Connections



RTW 410SH000101
Install new O-ring, if required. W hen disconnecting or
connecting lines, use two wrenches to prevent the connecting
portion from twisting or becoming damaged.


W hen connecting the refrigerant line at the block joint, securely
insert the projecting portion of the joint portion into the
connecting hole on the unit side and secure with a bolt.




Apply specified compressor oil to the O-rings prior to
connecting.

CAUTION:
Compressor (PAG) oil to be used varies according to
compressor model. Be sure to apply oil specified for the
model of compressor.



O-rings must be closely aligned with raised portion of
refrigerant line.

6. Fully close the shutoff valve. Record the highest
pressures.
・ If the pressure recorded is within 9800-10300 kPa
(100-105 kg/cm
2/1422-1493psi), the pump is
functioning within its specifications.
・ If the pressure recorded is higher than 10300 kPa
(105 kg/cm
2/1493psi), the valve in the pump is
defective.
・ If the pressure recorded is lower than 9800 kPa
(100 kg/cm
2/1422psi), the valve or the rotating
assembly in the pump is defective.
7. If the pump pressures are within specifications, leave the valve open and turn (or have someone
else turn) the steering wheel fully in both directions.
Record the highest pressures and compare with the
maximum pump pressure recorded in step 6. If this
pressure cannot be built up at either side of the
power steering unit, the power steering unit is
leaking internally and must be replaced.
8. Shut the engine off, remove the testing gauge.
9. Reconnect the pressure hose, check the fluid level and make the needed repairs.
10. If the problem still exists, the steering and front suspension must be thoroughly examined.

Maintenance
The hydraulic system should be kept clean, the fluid
level in the reservoir should be checked at regula
r
intervals and fluid added when required. Refer to
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants in General
Information section for the type of fluid to be used and
the intervals for filling.
If the system contains some dirt, flush it as described in
this section. If it is exceptionally dirty, the pump must be
completely disassembled before further usage. (The
steering unit cannot be disassembled.)
All tubes, hoses, and fittings should be inspected for
leakage at regular intervals. Fittings must be tight. Make
sure the clips, clamps and supporting tubes and hoses
are in place and properly secured.
Power steering hoses and lines must not be twisted,
kinked or tightly bent. Air in the system will cause
spongy action and noisy operation. W hen a hose is
disconnected or when fluid is lost, for any reason, the
system must be bled after refilling. Refer to Bleeding the
Power Steering System in this section.
・ Inspect gear for looseness or damage.
・ Inspect hoses to insure they are not touching an
y
other parts of the vehicle.
・ Inspect fluid level and fill to the proper level.

Fluid Level
1. Run the engine until the power steering fluid
reaches normal operating temperature, about 55 °
C (130 °F), then shut the engine off.
2. Check the level of fluid in the reservoir.
3. If the fluid level is low, add power steering fluid as
specified in General Information to the proper level
and install the receiver cap.
4. W hen checking the fluid level after the steering system has been serviced, air must be bled from
the system. Refer to Bleeding the Power Steering
System in this section.

Bleeding the Power Steering System
W hen a power steering pump or unit has been installed,
or an oil line has been disconnected, the air that has
entered the system must be bled out before the vehicle
is operated. If air is allowed to remain in the powe
r
steering fluid system, noisy and unsatisfactory operation
of the system may result.

Bleeding Procedure
W hen bleeding the system, and any time fluid is added
to the power steering system, be sure to use only powe
r
steering fluid as specified in General Information.
1. Fill the pump fluid reservoir to the proper level and let the fluid settle for at least two minutes.
2. Start the engine and let it run for a few seconds. Do not turn the steering wheel. Then turn the engine
off.
3. Add fluid if necessary.
4. Repeat the above procedure until the fluid level remains constant after running the engine.
5. Raise and support the front end of the vehicle so that the wheels are off the ground.
6. Start the engine. Slowly turn the steering wheel right and left, lightly contacting the wheel stops.
7. Add power steering fluid if necessary.
8. Lower the vehicle, set the steering wheel at the straight forward position after turning it to its full
steer positions 2 or 3 times, and stop the engine.
9. Check the fluid level and refill as required.
10. If the fluid is extremely foamy, allow the vehicle to settle for a few minutes, then repeat the above
procedure.

Flushing the Power Steering System
1. Raise and support the front end of the vehicle off
the ground until the wheels are free to turn.
2. Remove the fluid return line at the pump inlet connector and plug the connector port on the pump.
Direct the line toward a large container to catch the
draining fluid.
3. W hile running the engine at idle, fill the reservoi
r
with new power steering fluid. Turn the steering
wheel in both directions. Do not contact or hold the
steering wheel to the wheel stops. This will cause
the pump to go to pressure relief mode, which ma
y
cause a sudden fluid overflow at the reservoir.

16. Remove steering column cover.
17. Disconnect the wiring harness connectors located under the steering column.
18. Remove the combination switch assembly with SRS coil.
NOTE: The SRS coil is a part of the combination switch
assembly, which cannot be replaced separately.
Therefore, be sure not to remove the SRS coil from the
combination switch assembly.

19. Disconnect the starter switch harness connector
located under the steering column, then remove
lock cylinder assembly.

20.
Apply a setting mark (1) across the universal joint
and steering shaft to reassemble the parts in thei
r
original position, then remove steering column
assembly and second shaft.
NOTE: A setting mark can be easily made if the shaft is
withdrawn a little by loosening the steering shaft
universal joint.

Inspection
If abnormal conditions are found during inspection,
replace the steering column assembly.

Column Capsules
Check capsules on steering column bracket assembly;
all must be securely seated in bracket slots and
checked for any loose condition when pushed or pulled
by hand.

Column Universal Joint (between the
power steering unit and the steering shaft)
If resistance is felt when checked by rotating the joint,
replace the lower second steering shaft.

Shaft Universal Joint (between the lower
second steering shaft and the second
steering shaft)
If resistance is felt when checked by rotating the joint,
replace the second steering shaft assembly.

Tilt Mechanism
The tilt mechanism should move smoothly.
W hile locking the tilt mechanism, be sure the steering
column is latched securely by pushing the steering
wheel upward and downward.

Installation
1. Align the setting mark (1) on the second steering
shaft and the steering column assembly (applied at
disassembly).
