Note
1. Notes that are necessary for steering system:
(a) It is necessary to change parts correctly, for they will influence the performance of steering system to
make running danger.
2. Notes that are necessary for SRS airbag:
(a) MR7180 assembles with SRS (auxiliary protection system) such as safety airbag at the side of driver
and safety airbag at the side of passenger.
Maintenance does not accord with correct repair step, this might incur SRS explodes suddenly in
repair term to make heavy accident. Before repairing auxiliary protection system (including
disassembling, assembling, check or change parts), it is necessary to read the notes in SRS chapter
(auxiliary protection system).

exceed 10 seconds.
yDo not make oil temperature become too high.
(g) When engine is running at idling speed, open the valve
completely.
(h) Measure the 1.000 rpm and 3.000 rpm oil pressure of
engine.
Oil pressure difference: 490 kPa or less
Note: do not turn the steering wheel.
(i) When engine is running at idling speed, open the valve
completely, and turn the steering wheel to bottom.
Minimal oil pressure: 6,400kPa
Note:
yDo not keep the wheel locate at bottom for over 10
seconds.
yDo not make oil temperature become too high.
(j) Disassemble the special tool.
(k) Connect oil pressure supply pipe with power steering gear
(referring to page 205)
(l) Exhaust the air in power steering system.
5. Check the steering force
(a) Put the steering wheel at central position.
(b) Disassemble safety airbag assembly at the side of driver.
(c) Start engine, and make it run at idling speed.
(d) Measure the steering force of two directions.
Steering force (reference): 5.5 N

Light--Front fog light joint
Change
Notes:
zAssemble according to the opposite of disassemble. Instructions comes when necessary.
zThe replace procedure are the same on the left and right side.
zReferring to the drawing of front combination light on page 286.
1. Disassemble Radiator cover assembly (reference to page 380)
2. Disassemble left front tyre lining (reference to page 380)
3. Disassemble right front tyre lining (reference to page 380)
4. Disassemble front bumper (reference to page 380)
5. Disassemble left front combination light assembly [67000102]
(a) Disassemble three bolts
(b) Disassemble four joints
(c) Pull combination light ahead
(d) Disassemble two light seat cap and four bulbs.
Adjustments
1. Adjust front combination light focus only
(a) Parking car should accord to the following situations:
zFront combination light around does not be distorted or damaged.
zPark the car on flat road.
zTyre pressure limits to the regular number value
zThe driver is on driving seat and the car is ready to go(gasoline tank in full)
zThe car weaves fore-and-aft for many times.
(b) Inspect front combination light focus
(1) Prepare for thicker white paper
(2) Arise the paper plumb at the distance of 300cm from headlight.
(3) Make sure centerline of the car makes 90 degree angle with paper’s surface as following drawing.
(4) Draw a level line (H line) on the paper which headlight can irradiate.
(5) Draw a plumb line (V line) on the paper to across centerline of the car.
(6) Draw two level lines (V RH and V LH) in the area where two side lights can irradiate.
(7) Draw a level line(connect the middle signal of two low beam headlight) to the area where headlight
can irradiates.
Clues on: H RH and H LH lines are 0.57 lower than level line(H line)of light.
(8) Start the engine.
(9) Turn the front assembled switch to ON.

Vehicle inspection
1. inspect speed counter
(1) Use speedometer tester to inspect allowed error of speedometer and action of speedometer
Reference: Km/h
speed indicated by speedometer actual speed
20km/h17-23km/h
40km/h35-40km/h
60km/h55-60km/h
80km/h75-80km/h
100km/h95-100km/h
120km/h 114-120km/h
140km/h133-140km/h
160km/h152-160km/h
Notes: tyre wear or tyre pressure too high or too low will increase error.
(2) Inspect speedometer needle offset
Reference: below 0.5km/h
