The steering rack assembly :
Is mounted on the
rear face of the
front suspension crossbeam by two forg ed mounting brackets with resilient
bushes. The bushes are handed (pinion side and non-pinion side) and are orientated according to the vehicle range
application.
Convert s
the rotary motion of the steering wheel, via the steering gear pinion, to the lateral motion of the rack.
F
e
atures a variable ratio steering
rack with integral hydraulic po wer steering cylinder and piston.
Has a hydrauli
c control valve with Servotronic co
ntrol and positive center feel torsion bar.
The basic steering rack assembly is not serviceable. The following components are serviceable items:
Transfer pipework

14. Remove the drain pan and discard the fluid.
15. NOTE: The steering gear mounting bushings are handed;
they are marked accordingly and must be replaced as a pair.
Remove the steering gear mo unting bracket bushings.
For additional information, refer to: Steering Gear Bushing

( 21

16. NOTE: When removing the steering gear, manoeuvre the
power steering return pipe past the pinion housing to steering
gear pipes.
Remove the steering gear.
17. Using a tap (M10 x 1.5 mm), clean the steering gear to
crossbeam bolt hole threads.
1. If a new steering gear assembly is to be fitted, make sure
steering gear is centrali zed before installation.

The lower steeri ng col
umn:
Is a han

.
Incorporates
a col
umn to toeboard seal
which comprises a rolling element having two, low friction, PTFE rings. The
rolling element locates in a rubber b oot which seals to the toeboard.
Has a lowe
r universal joint connecting the
lower column to the steering rack.
Has an upper un
iversal joint connecting
the lower column to the upper column.
Has a NVH damper in
corporated into
the upper universal joint assembly.
May be installed in an
y orientation on the universal joint splines.
R

Position 'III'

START. The starter operates for as long as the key is held in this position, ag ainst spring pressure. If the engine fails to
start, the key must be returned to position 'I' befo re another start is attempted.
Lighting Switch

The li
ghting switch is on the left-h
and side of the steering column and controls the following functions.
Direction Indicators

The direction in
dicators:
Operate
when the ignition switch is in position II.
Are operat
ed by movi
ng the switch stalk up or down until it latches in position, to in
dicate a right or left turn
respectively.
Can be o p
erated while the switch stalk is held against
spring pressure before reaching the latch position.
Cancel
automatically upon completion of a turn, the
column switch returning to the center position.
An audible ticking and a flashing green warning lamp on the in strument cluster indicate that the direction indicators are

In the OFF position:
All
exterior lamps are switched OFF.
In the sidelamp position:
The front
sidelamps, tail, license plate and any other la
mps required by local legislation are switched ON.
The
sidelamps tell-tale lamp illuminates.
In the headlamp position, with the ignition switch in position II:
The h
eadlamps are switched ON in addition to the lamps switched on in the sidelamp position.
If the ignition is switched to the OFF position with the column switch in the headlamp position, the sidelamps, tail and
license plate lamps will stay ON, but the headlamps will switch OFF.
In the AUTO position (where fitted), with the ignition switch in position II:
Th
e sensor mounted on the back of the interior rear view
mirror monitors exterior light levels and automatically
switches the sidelamps and di pped headlamps ON and OFF.
The sensitivity level can be adjusted by turn ing the sensor control knob on the back of the interior mirror, left to decrease or
right to increase. The sensor must not be covered and the windscreen must be kept clean.
