STEERING -On-vehicle Service37A-9
POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL CHECK
1. Park the vehicle on a flat, level surface, start the engine,
and then turn the steering wheel several times to raise
the temperature of the fluid to approximately 50 - 60_C.
2. With the engine running, turn the wheel all the way to
the left and right several times.
3. Check the fluid in the oil reservoir for foaming or milkiness.
Check the difference of the fluid level when the engine
is stopped, and while it is running. If the change of the
fluid level is 5 mm or more, air bleeding should be done.
POWER STEERING FLUID REPLACEMENT
1. Raise the front wheels on a jack, and then support them
with rigid racks.
2. Disconnect the return hose connection.
3. Connect a vinyl hose to the return hose, and drain the
oil into a container.
4. Disconnect the ignition coil connectors. (Refer to
GROUP16 - Ignition System.)
5. While operating the starting motor intermittently, turn the
steering wheel all the way to the left and right several
times to drain all of the fluid.
6. Connect the return hoses securely, and then secure it
with the clip.
7. Fill the oil reservoir with specified fluid up to the lower
position of the filter, and then bleed air.
Specified fluid:
Automatic transmission fluid DEXRONII
Caution
Do not use ATF-SPIIM and ATF-SPIII.
POWER STEERING SYSTEM BLEEDING
1. Jack up the vehicle and support the front wheels with
rigid racks.
2. Disconnect the ignition coil connectors. (Refer to
GROUP16 - Ignition System.)
3. Cranking the engine with the starter several times
intermittently (during 15 to 20 seconds), turn the steering
wheel left and right fully five or six times.
Caution
(1) During the bleeding, refill the fluid so that the
level never falls below the lower position of the
filter.
(2) Be sure to bleed air only while cranking. If the
bleeding is done with the engine running, the air
will be broken up and absorbed into the fluid.
4. Connect the ignition coil connectors and idle the engine.
5. Turn the steering wheel left and right fully until no bubbles
comes out in the oil reservoir.
6. See that the fluid is not milky and that the fluid level
is up to the specified position on the level gauge.
7. See that the fluid level changes little when the steering
wheel is turned left and right.
8. Check difference in fluid levels between the engine
stopped and running.
Fluid level change: Within 5 mm

runningWhile engine

STEERING -On-vehicle Service37A-10
9. If the level changes more than 5 mm, the air is badly
bled. So, bleed air again.
Caution
(1) If the fluid level rises suddenly after the engine
is stopped, the bleeding is incomplete.
(2) Incomplete bleeding causes abnormal noises
from the pump and the flow-control valve. This
could lessen the life of the pump and the other
parts.
OIL PUMP PRESSURE TEST
1. Disconnect the pressure hose from the oil pump, and
then connect the special tools.
2. Bleed the air, and then turn the steering wheel several
times while the vehicle is not moving so that the
temperature of the fluid rises to approximately 50 - 60_C.
3. Start the engine and idle it at 1,000±100 r/min.
4. Fully close the shut-off valve of the pressure gauge and
measure the oil pump relief pressure to confirm that it
is within the standard value range.
Standard value: 8.4 - 9.0 MPa
5. If the standard value is not met, the oil pump is defective.
So, replace the oil pump. Then, measure oil pressure
again.
6. With the pressure gauge shut - off valve fully open, check
the hydraulic pressure in unladen condition.
Standard value: 0.2 - 0.8 MPa
7. If the standard value is not met, the oil line or steering
gear is probably defective. So, repair and measure oil
pressure again.
8. Turn the steering wheel fully either left or right and check
the retention hydraulic pressure.
Standard value: 8.4 - 9.0 MPa
9. If the pressure is below the standard value, disassemble
and reassemble the steering gear. If above, replace the
oil pump. Then, measure oil pressure again.
10. Remove the special tools, and tighten the pressure hose
to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 18±3 N·m
11. Bleed the system.

POWER STEERING OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
CHECK
1. Disconnect the pressure hose from the oil pump, and
then connect the special tools.
2. Bleed the air, and then turn the steering wheel several
times while the vehicle is not moving so that the
temperature of the fluid rises to approximately 50 - 60_C.
3. The engine should be idling.
4. Disconnect the connection of the connector for the oil
pressure switch, and set an ohmmeter in position.
5. Gradually close the shut-off valve of the pressure gauge
and increase the hydraulic pressure, then check whether
or not the hydraulic pressure that activates the switch
is the standard value.
Standard value: 1.8 - 2.4 MPa
6. Gradually open the shut-off valve and reduce the hydraulic
pressure; then check whether or not the hydraulic pressure
that deactivates the switch is the standard value.
Standard value: 1.0 - 2.4 MPa
7. Remove the special tools, and then tighten the pressure
hose to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 18±3 N·m
8. Bleed the system.
BALL JOINT DUST COVER CHECK
1. Check the dust cover for cracks or damage by pushing
it with finger.
2. If the dust cover is cracked or damaged, replace the
tie rod end.
NOTE
Cracks or damage of the dust cover may cause damage
of the ball joint.

ENCRYPTED CODE REGISTRATION METHOD
AND RESETTING THE CODE TO THE FACTORY
SETTING
Register the encrypted code in the immobilizer-ECU and then
reset the code to the factory setting after parts have been
replaced.
Replacement partEncrypted code
Ignition keyNecessary
Immobilizer-ECUNecessary
Engine-ECU*Necessary
NOTE
*: If the engine-ECU is replaced, the immobilizer-ECU should
be replaced. Each engine-ECU has an individual information
for immobilizer-ECU, and the individual information is
registered in the immobilizer-ECU.

CHASSIS ELECTRICAL -Ignition Switch and Immobilizer System54A-13
ENCRYPTED CODE REGISTRATION METHOD
If using an ignition key that has just been newly purchased,
or if the immobilizer-ECU has been replaced, you will need
to register the encrypted codes for each ignition key being
used into the immobilizer-ECU. (A maximum of eight different
encrypted codes can be registered.)
Moreover, when the immobilizer-ECU has been replaced, you
will need to use the MUT-IIto register the password that
the user specifies into the immobilizer-ECU. (Refer to the
MUT-IIinstruction manual for instructions on using the MUT-II.)
Caution
Because registering of the encrypted codes is carried
out after all previously-registered codes have been
erased, you should have ready all of the ignition keys
that have already been registered.
1. Connect the MUT-IIto the diagnosis connector.
Caution
Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (OFF) position before
connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II.
2. Check that diagnosis code No. P1160 is not being
generated by the each engine-ECU. If it is being generated
check according to the Troubleshooting Procedures.
(Refer to GROUP 13A - Troubleshooting.)
3 Use the ignition key that is to be registered to turn on
the ignition switch.
4. Use the MUT-IIto register the encrypted code. If you
are registering two or more codes, use the next key to
the registered to turn on the ignition switch without
disconnecting the MUT-II.
5. Turn off the ignition switch.
6. Check that the engine can be started with each of the
ignition keys.
7. Check the diagnosis output from the each engine-ECU,
and erase code No. P1160 if it appears. (Refer to GROUP
13A - Troubleshooting.)
8. Disconnect the MUT-II. This completes the registration
operation.
