2023 FORD SUPER DUTY wheel

The electronic torque overlay steeringsystem adds supplemental steering assistto the hydraulic gear when needed,dependent on vehicle conditions such asvehicle speed, steering wheel angle, andsteering wheel torque. The hydraulicsteering system provides the majority ofsteering assistance. The electronic torqueoverlay enables features such as pro trailerbackup assistance and lane departurewarning.
If your vehicle loses electrical power whileyou are driving, your vehicle loses electricpower steering assistance. The steeringsystem still operates, and you can steeryour vehicle with hydraulic assist. Steeringyour vehicle with only hydraulic assistrequires more effort.
Extreme continuous steering may increasethe effort required for you to steer yourvehicle. This increased effort preventsoverheating and permanent damage tothe steering system. You do not lose theability to steer your vehicle manually.Typical steering and driving maneuversallow the system to cool and return tonormal operation.
LOCATING THE HYDRAULICPOWER STEERING FLUIDRESERVOIR
The hydraulic power steering fluid reservoiris found in the engine compartment. SeeUnder Hood Overview (page 441).
CHECKING THE HYDRAULICPOWER STEERING FLUID
Check the power steering fluid. SeeScheduled Maintenance (page 591). Ifadding fluid is necessary, use onlyMERCON LV ATF.
Check the fluid level when it is at ambienttemperature.
1.Check the fluid level in the reservoir. Itshould be between the MIN and MAXrange. Do not add fluid if the level iswithin this range.
2.If the fluid level is low, add fluid to bringthe fluid level up to between the MINand MAX range.
3.Switch the engine on.
4.While the engine idles, turn the steeringwheel left and right several times.
5.Switch the engine off.
6.Recheck the fluid level in the reservoir.Do not add fluid if the level is betweenthe MIN and MAX range.
7.If the fluid is low, add fluid in smallamounts, continuously checking thelevel until it is between the MIN andMAX range. For proper fluid type, SeeCapacities and Specifications (page520). Be sure to put the cap back on thereservoir.
