10.1 STEERING SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
10.1.1 Steering Column Major Components
Integrated column assembly incorporating power, or manual, reach /tilt mechanism and lock.
Ignition switch.
Ignition interlock solenoid.
Key transponder coil.
Body attachment points.
Depending upon model, the steering column may be adjusted for
tilt and reach, either by electrical or manual means.
Power variants may be either automatically or manually adjusted and all types have the entry / exit feature.
10.1.2 Steering Column Operating Principle
Power Adjust: Two independent motor / gearbox assemblies provide infinite adjustment for reach and height within
approximate ranges of 35mm and
13O respectively. Adjustments may be automatically made in conjunction with the
seat memory facility or manually when the adjustment switch is used. It should be noted that selection of 'Off will
disable the automatic entry / exit mode.
Manual Adjust: The cable operated reach adjustment is infinite within a range of 35mm, with the desired position being
fixed
by a rack and wedge. Tilt variations are stepped at approximately 3O intervals with 6 positions being available,
the uppermost being unlatched.
From the uppermost position the column may be pulled down to engage the first detent without using the
tilt lever.
WARNING: MANUAL ADJUST ONLY: TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY, COLUMN UPWARD TRAVEL SHOULD BE MAN- UALLY RESTRAINED TO CHECK UPWARD SPRING ASSISTANCE. THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT IF
THE STEERING WHEEL HAS BEEN REMOVED FOR MAINTENANCE REASONS.
WARNING: ALL TYPES; DO NOT REMOVE THE STEERING COLUMN FROM THE VEHICLE WITH THE STEERING
WHEEL ATTACHED UNLESS THE STEERING
IS CENTERED AND THE COLUMN LOCK IS ENGAGED. IFTHE
SERVE THIS MAY RESULT IN AN INOPERATIVE AIRBAG SYSTEM. SEE LABEL ON STEERING WHEEL

10.1.3 Steering Hydraulic System Major Components
Engine driven rotary vane pump (belt driven 12 cylinder; direct drive from timing gear 6 cylinder) with falling
flow characteristic (as
pump speed increases fluid flow decreases) and integral pressure relief valve.
Remote fluid reservoir with integral 'return' side filter.
Steering rack (incorporating speed sensitive transducer).
Steering control module
(SCM).
Fluid cooler integral with engine coolant radiator and associated pipe-work.
10.1.4 Hydraulic System Features
The 'Servotronic' system reduces steering input loads during parking and low speed manoeuvres and progressively
increases input loads as vehicle speed rises. This feature enhances steering feel.
10.1.5
Rotary motion of the steering wheel is converted, via the steering gear pinion to lateral motion of the rack. Hydraulic
assistance is provided by pressurized fluid being directed against the rack bar piston in the rack cylinder. The pressure
applied to each side of the rack piston is controlled by the pinion valve which varies the restriction through which the
flow for each side of the rack piston must pass.

With the vehicle travelling straight ahead, the valve restrictions are balanced, thus providing equal pressure on each
side of the piston. When load is applied at the steering wheel the two halves of the pinion valve are displaced making
the restrictions unequal. The differential pressure then directs the rack piston in favour of the higher pressure.
Asthe turning load is removed the pressures equalize and the steering returns to the straight ahead position, aided by suspen-
sion geometry.
The displacement
of the halves of the pinion valve (rotor and sleeve) is controlled by the elastic deformation of the
torsion bar which is concentric with the pinion and valve.

@ Steering
The rotaryvalve within the pinion housing on the 'Servotronic'system is fitted with a 'Hydraulic Reaction Piston' (HRP). The HRP moves axially, relative to the rotor, on ball bearing travellers (acting as a face cam) and is connected to the
sleeve
by a four bearing helical screw. Pressure applied eitherside of the HRP is translated into a rotational force which
resists torsion bar /valve displacement thus increasing steering effort. The amount of pressure applied to the HRP is
controlled by: a) the differential pressure on the rack piston, proportional tovehicle corneringforce and
b) the position
of the transducer valve controlled bythe SCM from information gathered on road speed. Road speed data is processed
from the left hand rear wheel speed sensor.

10.2 SERVICE
PROCEDURES - SAFETY RELATED
10.2.1
Airbag
The electrically activated driver's side airbag is attached to the steering wheel hub and is fed by two wires from the
column stalk assembly. Electrical input to the column stalk assembly for the airbag is provided by a dedicated harness
which is encased in a yellow sleeve. A mechanism in the stalk assembly called the 'cable reel cassette' provides conti
-
nuity from the static column to the steering wheel. The 'cable reel cassette' is driven by a tang which locates in the
steering wheel. Because the connection is by wires, and the cassette assembly is only capable of approximately five
(5) full turns,
it is critically important that initial positioning is correct, see Section 15. It is equally important that fitting of the steering wheel, connection of the column, lower shaft and steering rackshould
ONLY be made with the steering rack in the center of its travel.
WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE THE STEERING COLUMN FROM THE VEHICLE WITH THE STEERING WHEEL AT- TACHED UNLESS THE STEERING IS CENTERED AND THE COLUMN LOCK IS ENGAGED. IF THE LOCK
BARREL
IS TO BE RENEWED, 'LOCK-WIRE THE ASSEMBLY TO PREVENT ROTATION. FAILURE TO OB- SERVE THIS AND CONSEQUENT DAMAGE TO THE 'CABLE REEL CASSETTE MAY RESULT IN AN INOP- ERATIVE AIRBAG SYSTEM. SEE LABEL ON STEERING WHEEL HUB.
10.3 SERVICE PROCEDURES
10.3.1 Working Practices
It is not recommended that either the steering rack or engine driven pump assemblies are repaired in any way other
than in accordance with the repair procedures described in this manual. The fluid reservoir and filter is a disposable
assembly and no attempt should be made to clean it internally. Genuine replacement units must be fitted following
routine service or diagnostic confirmation of the failure of any component.
The importance of cleanliness cannot be over
-stressed, not only with new parts but also those which may havefailed.
In-service contamination of the hydraulic system is a major cause of failures and may be avoided with good working
practices and care. All new units and pipes must be supplied with suitable blanks in every orifice. Should a unit not
have blanks fitted, do not use
it - return it to the supplier with an appropriate reason for your action.
To help the manufacturer diagnose problems and avoid post-removal contamination; provide full details of the fault
and plug all connections as soon as they are released. All suspect units must be returned to Jaguar Cars complete
with relevant documentation.
CAUTION: It is imperative that the power steering system does not become contaminated in any way. Always de- cant fluid from afresh sealed container and clean the area around the reservoir neck both before and after topping-up. Never return drained fluid to the system.
10.3.2
Position the vehicle on a level surface with the engine sta- tionary and fluid cold. Add fluid, if required, so that the level
falls BETWEEN the marks
Fig.1.
10.3.3 System Bleed (following maintenance)
To avoid fluid aeration and possible pump damage, the in- itial fill process must be carried out with the ignition OFF.
Set the fluid level approximately 20 mm above the upper
dipstick level, and cycle the steering no less than three (3) times from lock to lock (this may be best achieved with the
front wheels off the ground). As air is expelled thefluid level
will fall, the level should be corrected. Start the engine and
further cycle thesteering until the fluid level becomes stable.
Stop the engine and finally set the level in accordance
with the fluid level check procedure.
10.3.4 Fluid Reservoir
The reservoir has an integral, non-serviceable, return-side
filter. Should any component be renewed or the system
'broken into' for any reason,
it is essential that the reservoir and the fluid are changed. Under normal operating condi- tions it is not necessary to change the fluid.
10.3.5 Hydraulic Connections
Fluid
Level Check and
Top-up
Jf7-281
Fig. 1
All hydraulic connections and surrounding areas should be scrupulously cleaned before and after work. Please note
that the steering rack valve block connections for FEED and RETURN are common in size. Ensure that the pipes are
correctly fitted, the uppermost one being the high pressure FEEDfrom the steering pump and the lower (RETURN) hav- ing a double depth hexagon tube nut.

10.4 DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
10.4.1 Introduction
The following diagnostic procedures are provided to rapidly pin-point mechanical faults which are not interrogated
by electrical means. Diagnostic procedures which require dedicated electrically operated equipment are dealt with in the 'Electrical Diagnostic Manual' (EDM) but may be mentioned here for reference.
10.4.2 Preliminary Action
Before any problem solving is undertaken it is essential that the fluid level and where applicable, belt tension, is
checked and if required corrected.
CAUTION: It is imperative that the power steering system does not become contaminated in any way. Always de cant fluid from a fresh sealed container and clean the area around the reservoir neck both before and after
topping-up. Never return drained fluid to the system.
