4. Rotate the wheel to be measured at approximately 1/2 - 1
rotation per second, and check the output voltage using a
circuit tester or an oscilloscope.

Output voltage
When measuring with a circuit tester:
42 mV or more
When measuring with an oscilloscope:
120 mV p-p or more
5. The followings are suspected if the output voltage is lower
than the value described above. Check the wheel speed
sensor, and replace if necessary.
DToo large clearance between the pole piece of the
wheel speed sensor and ABS rotor
DFaulty wheel speed sensor
Inspecting Waveforms With An Oscilloscope
Use the following method to observe the output voltage
waveform from each wheel speed sensor with an oscilloscope.
DStart the engine, and rotate the front wheels by engaging
1st gear. Turn the rear wheels manually so that they
rotate at a constant speed.
NOTE
1. The waveform measurements can also be taken while
the vehicle is actually moving.
2. The output voltage will be small when the wheel speed
is low, and similarly it will be large when the wheel speed
is high.

9. If the level changes more than 5 mm, the air is badly
bled. So, bleed air again.
Caution
(1) If the fluid level rises suddenly after the engine
is stopped, the bleeding is incomplete.
(2) Incomplete bleeding causes abnormal noises
from the pump and the flow-control valve. This
could lessen the life of the pump and the other
parts.
OIL PUMP PRESSURE TEST
1. Disconnect the pressure hose from the oil pump, and
then connect the special tools.
2. Bleed the air, and then turn the steering wheel several
times while the vehicle is not moving so that the
temperature of the fluid rises to approximately 50 - 60_C.
3. Start the engine and idle it at 1,000±100 r/min.
4. Fully close the shut-off valve of the pressure gauge and
measure the oil pump relief pressure to confirm that it
is within the standard value range.
Standard value: 8.4 - 9.0 MPa
5. If the standard value is not met, the oil pump is defective.
So, replace the oil pump. Then, measure oil pressure
again.
6. With the pressure gauge shut - off valve fully open, check
the hydraulic pressure in unladen condition.
Standard value: 0.2 - 0.8 MPa
7. If the standard value is not met, the oil line or steering
gear is probably defective. So, repair and measure oil
pressure again.
8. Turn the steering wheel fully either left or right and check
the retention hydraulic pressure.
Standard value: 8.4 - 9.0 MPa
9. If the pressure is below the standard value, disassemble
and reassemble the steering gear. If above, replace the
oil pump. Then, measure oil pressure again.
10. Remove the special tools, and tighten the pressure hose
to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 18±3 N·m
11. Bleed the system.
Fluid level change: Within 5 mm

INSPECTION
GEAR BOX PINION TOTAL ROTATION TORQUE CHECK
Caution
Secure the steering gear box and linkage in their mounting
positions only. Otherwise, deformation or damage could
result.
1. Using the special tool, turn the pinion gear at a speed
of one rotation per 4 to 6 seconds to measure total rotation
torque.
Standard values:
Total rotation torque: 0.8 – 1.8 N·m
Torque fluctuation: 0.49 N·m or less
NOTE
(1) Remove the bellows from the rack housing before
measuring.
(2) Measure the total rotation torque by turning the special
tool left and right 180_from the neutral position.
2. If the standard values are not met, adjust the pinion total
rotation torque. (Refer to P.37A-26.)
3. In case the adjustment is impossible, disassemble and
check the components, and repair if necessary.
