Fluid Leakage Inspection

  1. Start the engine and let it idle.
  2. CAUTION:
    • If the steering wheel is kept in the fully turned position for more than 5 seconds, the fluid temperature will rise excessively and adversely affect the oil pump.
  3. Turn the steering wheel fully to the left and right to apply fluid pressure.
  4. NOTE:
    • The points where fluid leakage may occur are indicated in the figure.
  5. Inspect for fluid leakage.
    • If fluid leakage is found, replace related pipe or hose.
