FLUID LEVEL
1. Check fluid level with engine stopped.
2. Ensure that fluid level is between MIN and MAX.
3. Fluid levels at HOT and COLD are different. Do not confuse
them.
CAUTION:
The fluid level should not exceed the MAX line. Excessive flui d causes fluid leakage from the
cap.
Never reuse drained power steering fluid.
Always use the specified fluid. Refer to MA-10, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
FLUID LEAKAGE
Check hydraulic connections for fluid leakage, cracks, damage,
looseness, or wear.
1. Run engine until the fluid temperature reaches 50 to 80 °C (122
to 176 °F) in reservoir tank, and keep engine speed idle.
2. Turn steering wheel several times from full left stop to full right stop.
3. Hold steering wheel at each lock position for five seconds and carefully, check for fluid leakage.
CAUTION:
Never hold the steering wheel in a locked position for more
than 10 seconds. (There is the possibility that power steer-
ing oil pump assembly may be damaged.)
4. If fluid leakage at connections is noticed, then loos en flare nut and then retighten. Do not overtighten con-
nector as this can damage O-ring, washer and connector.
5. If fluid leakage from oil pump is noticed, check oil pump. Refer to ST-52, "
Inspection".
6. Check steering gear boots for accumulation of fluid indicating from steering gear.
AIR BLEEDING HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
If air bleeding is not complete, the following symptoms can be observed.
Bubbles are created in reservoir tank.
Clicking noise can be heard from oil pump.
Excessive buzzing in the oil pump. NOTE:
Fluid noise may occur in the steering gear or oil pump. This does not affect performance or durability of the
system.
1. Turn steering wheel several times from full left stop to full right stop with engine off. CAUTION:
Fill reservoir tank with a sufficien t amount of fluid so that fluid level is not below the MIN line while
turning steering wheel.
2. Start engine and hold steering wheel at each lock position for 3 seconds at idle to check for fluid leakage.
HOT : Fluid temperature 50 – 80
°C (122 – 176 °F)
COLD : Fluid temperature 0 – 30 °C (32 – 86 °F)
Recommended fluid : Refer to MA-10, "
Fluids
and Lubricants".
Fluid capacity : Refer to ST-57, "
General
Specifications".
