6C-8 Power Assisted Steering System:
P/S Fluid Leakage Check
S5JB0A6306002
Start engine and turn steering wheel fully to the right and left so that maximum hydraulic pressure is provided.
Then visually check P/S gear case assembly (1), P/S pump (2) and P/S fluid reservoir (3) themselves and each joint of
their connecting pipes for leakage.
CAUTION
!
Never keep steering wheel turned fully for longer than 10 seconds.
P/S System Air Bleeding Procedure
S5JB0A6306003
1) Hoist the front end of vehicle and apply safety stands.
2) Fill P/S fluid reservoir with fluid up to specified level.
NOTE
Before starting engine, place transmission gear shift lever in “Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P”
range for A/T model), and set parking brake.
3) After running engine at idling speed for 3 to 5 seconds, stop it and add fluid to satisfy specification.
4) With engine stopped, turn steering wheel to the right and left as far as it stops, repeat it a few times and fill fluid to
specified level.
5) With engine running at idling speed, repeat stop-to-stop turn of steering wheel till all foams in P/S fluid reservoir
are gone.
NOTE
Make sure to bleed air completely. If air remains in fluid, P/S pump may make humming noise or
steering wheel may feel heavy.
6) Finally check to make sure that fluid is filled to specified level.
