Steering System - General Information - Steering System
Description and Operation

Details of the Steering System can be found in sections 211-02, 211-03, 211-04 and 211-05.

•
NOTE: The following steps must be carried out with assistance.
1. 1. With the wheels in the straight ahead po sition, gently turn the steering wheel to the left and the right to check for
free play.
2. 2. Free play should be between 0 and 6 mm (0 and 0.24 in) at the steering wheel rim. If the free play exceeds this
limit, either the ball joints are worn, the lower steering column joints are worn or the backlash of the steering gear
is excessive.
CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to adjust the stee ring gear yoke. Failure to follow this instruction will result in the steering
gear warranty to become invalid.
3. 3. The backlash of the steering gear cannot be adjusted, in stall a new steering gear. For additional information,
REFER to Section 211
-0
2 Power Steering
.
4. 4. Grasp the steering wheel
firm
ly and move it up and down and to the left and right without turning the wheel to
check for column bearing wear, steering wheel or steering column. For additional information,
REFER to Section 211
-0
4 Steering Column

Power Steering Fluid Condition Check
1.
1. R
un the engine for 2 minutes.
2. 2. Check the power steering fluid system level.
3. 3. Observe the color and the odor. The color under normal circumstances should be dark reddish, not brown or
black.
4. 4. Allow the fluid to drip onto a faci al tissue and examine the stain.
5. 5. If evidence of solid material is foun d, the power steering fluid system should be drained for further inspection.
6. 6. If fluid contamination or steering co mponent failure is confirmed by the se diment in the power steering fluid
system, REFER to Steering Fault Diagnosis by Symptom Charts in this section.
