ItemDescription
A Positive camber angle
B True vertical
When the wheel tilts out at the top, then the camber is positive (+).
When the wheel tilts in at the top, then the camber is negative(- ).
Standard value : 0° ± 30´
Difference between right and left angle is within 0° 30´
Camber is pre- set at the factory and doesn't need to be adjusted. If the camber is not within the standard value,
replace the bent or damaged parts.
[REAR]
Standard value : - 6´ ± 30´
Difference between right and left angle is within 0° 30´
Adjust the camber by turning the cambolt of the rear upper arm.
Left cambolt : Clockwise → camber(- )
Right cambolt : Clockwise →camber(+)
The variation of camber by a rotation of the cambolt :
About 0°8´35´´
CASTER
Caster is the tilting of the strut axis either forward or backward from vertical. A backward tilt is positive (+) and a
forward tilt is negative ( - ).
Caster is pre- set at the factory and doesn't need to be adjusted. If the caster is not within the standard value, replace
the bent or damaged parts.

CHECKING POWER STEERING BELT TENSION
Refer to EM group(Timing system).
CHECKING POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
1.Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Start the engine. With the vehicle kept stationary, turn the steering wheel several times continuously to raise the
fluid temperature to 50- 60°C (122 - 140°F).
3. With the engine at idle, turn the steering wheel fully clockwise and counter- clockwise several times.
4. Make sure that there is no foaming or cloudiness in the reservoir fluid.
5. Stop the engine and check for any difference in fluid level between a stationary and a running engine.
a.If the fluid level varies 5 mm (0.2 in) or more, bleed the system again.
b. If the fluid level suddenly rises after stopping the engine, further bleeding is required.
c. Incomplete bleeding will produce a chattering sound in the pump and noise in the flow control valve, and
lead to decreased durability of the pump.
REPLACING POWER STEERING FLUID
1.Jack up the front wheels and support them with jackstands.
2. Disconnect the return hose from the oil reservoir and plug the oil reservoir.
3. Connect a vinyl hose to the disconnected return hose, and drain the oil into a container.
4. Remove the fuel pump fuse, then start the engine and wait for the engine to stall. Next, while operating the starting
motor intermittently, turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and then to the right several times to drain the
fluid.
5. Connect the return hoses, then fill the oil reservoir with the specified fluid.
6. Reinstall the fuel pump fuse.
7. Start the engine. Check for oil leakage.
8. Stop the engine.
9. Bleed the system.
Power steering fluid type : PSF - 3
Total quantity : Approx 1.1 liter
AIR BLEEDING
1.Remove the fuel pump fuse, then start the engine and wait for the engine to stall. Next, while operating the starting
motor intermittently (for 15 ~ 20 seconds), turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and then to the right five or
six times.

Tightening torque Nm (kgf.m, lb - ft):
40 ~ 50 (4.0 ~ 5.0, 29 ~ 36)
4. After making the marks on the steering wheel and shaft for reinstallation, remove the steering wheel using a SST
(09561- 11002).
Do not hammer on the steering wheel to remove it ; it may damage the steering column.
5.Loosen the screws, and then remove the lower crash pad (A).
6.Loosen the screws, and then remove the steering column upper (B) and lower shrouds (A).
7.Disconnect the connectors (A) and then remove the clock sprig (B).

11.Remove the yoke plug (B) with a 14mm socket (A).
12.Remove the lock nut (D), yoke plug (C), rack support spring (B) and rack support yoke (A) from the gear box.
13.When the end of the circlip comes out of the notchedhole of the housing rack cylinder, turn the rack stopper (A)
clockwise and remove the circlip.
Be careful not to damage the rack.

14.When the end of the circlip comes out of the notched hole (A) of the housing rack cylinder, turn the rack stopper
(B) counterclockwise and remove the circlip.
Be careful not to damage the rack.
15.Remove the rack bushing and rack from the rack housing.
16. Remove the O - ring(A) from the rack bushing (B).
17.Remove the oil seal (B) from the rack bushing (A).

COMPONENT REPLACEMENT AFTER DEPLOYMENT
Before doing any SRS repairs, use the Hi - Scan Pro to check for DTCs. Refer to the Diagnostic Trouble Code list
for repairing of the related DTCs.
When the front airbag(s) deployed after a collision, replace the following items. a. SRSCM
b. Deployed airbag(s)
c. Seat belt pretensioner(s)
d. Front impact sensors
e. SRS wiring harnesses
f. Inspect the clock spring for heat damage.
If any damage found, replace the clock spring.
When the seat belt pretensioner(s) deployed after a collision, replace the following items. a. Seat belt pretensioner(s)
b. SRSCM (if B1658 detected)
c. Front impact sensors
d. SRS wiring harnesses
When the side/curtain airbag(s) deployed after a collision, replace the following items. a. SRSCM
b. Deployed airbag(s)
c. Side impact sensor(s) for the deployed side(s)
d. SRS wiring harnesses
After the vehicle is completely repaired, confirm the SRS airbag system is OK. a. Turn the ignition switch ON, the SRS indicator should come on for about 6 seconds and then go off.

Drive Airbag (DAB) Module and
Clock Spring
Page 833 of 1575
2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
DESCRIPTION
Driver Airbag (DAB) is installed in steering wheel and electrically connected to SRSCM via clockspring. It protects the
driver from danger by deploying a bag when frontal crash occurs. The SRSCM determines deployment of Driver Airbag
(DAB).
Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the airbag module (squib) even if you are using the specified
tester. If the circuit resistance is measured with a tester, accidental airbag deployment will result in serious
personal injury.
