STEERING WHEEL
InspectionINFOID:0000000012430497
CONDITION OF INSTALLATION
• Check installation conditions of steering gear, front suspension, axle and steering column.
• Check if movement exists when steering wheel is mo ved up and down, to the left and right and to the axial
direction.
• Verify that the steering gear nuts are tightened to specification. Refer to ST-14, "
Exploded View".
STEERING WHEEL PLAY
1. Set the front wheels and tires in the straight-ahead position, start engine, then lightly turn steering wheel
to the left and right until the front wheels start to move. Measure steering wheel movement on the outer
circumference.
2. When the measurement value is outside the standard va lue, check backlash for each joint of steering col-
umn and installation condition of steering gear.
STEERING WHEEL NEUTRAL POSITION
Check steering wheel neutral position using the following procedure:
1. Confirm that front wheel alignment is correct. Refer to FSU-8, "
Adjustment".
2. Set the front wheels and tires in the straight-ahead posit ion, check if steering wheel is in the neutral posi-
tion.
3. If it is not in the neutral position, remo ve steering wheel and reinstall it correctly.
4. If the neutral position cannot be attained by repositi oning the steering wheel two teeth or less on steering
stem, loosen the steering gear outer socket lock nuts, then adjust the inner sockets by the same amount
in the opposite direction.
5. Re-check the front wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-8, "
Adjustment".
STEERING WHEEL TURNING FORCE
1. Park vehicle on a level and dry surface, set parking brake.
2. Tires need to be inflated normal pressure. Refer to WT-54, "
Tire Air Pressure".
3. Start engine.
4. Check steering wheel turning force using Tool when steering wheel has been turned 360 ° from the neutral position.
5. If steering wheel turning force is out of specification, inspect steering column. Refer to ST-10, "
Inspection".
6. If steering column meets specification, inspect steering gear. Refer to ST-14, "
Inspection".

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Check the operation of the control linkage. Refer to TM-21, "Inspection".
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels incl uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leaks.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leaks at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leaks at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal and installation, slack in the guide
may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop
after hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no lea ks of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec-
ified level, if necessary.
• Summary of the inspection items:
*Power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.

CVT CONTROL SYSTEM : Sh
ift Position IndicatorINFOID:0000000012431007
TCM transmits shift position signal to combination meter via CAN communication. The actual shift position is
displayed on combination meter according to the signal.
CVT CONTROL SYSTEM : Malfunc tion Indicator Lamp (MIL)INFOID:0000000012431008
The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) is located on the combination
meter.
The MIL will illuminate when the ignition switch is turned ON without
the engine running. This is a bulb check.
When the engine is started, the MIL should turn off. If the MIL
remains illuminated, the on board diagnostic system has detected an
engine system malfunction.
For details, refer to EC-57, "

tion Indicator Lamp (MIL)".

UID WARMER SYSTEM
FLUID COOLER & FLUID WARMER SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000012431015
CVT FLUID COOLER SCHEMATIC
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
CVT Oil Warmer
• The CVT oil warmer (1) is installed on the front part of transaxle
assembly.
• When engine is started while engine and CVT are cold, engine coolant temperature rises more quickly than CVT fluid tempera-
ture. CVT oil warmer is provided with two circuits for CVT and
engine coolant respectively so that warmed engine coolant warms
CVT quickly. This helps shorten CVT warming up time, improving
fuel economy.
• A cooling effect is obtained when CVT fluid temperature is high.
CVT Fluid Cooler (Water-cooling)
• The CVT fluid cooler (water-cooling) is installed in the radiator side tank (right side).
• CVT fluid is cooled by engine coolant.
SHIFT LOCK SYSTEM
Manual valve Distributes the clutch and brake operation pressures (pilot pressure) corresponding to
each shift position.
High clutch/reverse brake switching valve Switches the circuit for the high clutch and the reverse brake.
Torque converter clutch control valve It is operated with the torque converter clutch solenoid valve and it adjusts the tighten-
ing pressure and non-tightening pressure of the torque converter clutch piston of the
torque converter.
Primary pressure control valve It is operated with the primary pressure solenoid valve and adjusts the feed pressure to
the primary pulley.
