• Rotate steering wheel to make sure it is centered and there is no binding, noise or excessive steering effort.
• Make sure that the number of turns are the same from the straight-ahead position to the left and right locks.
• Check each part of steering system for damage or ot her malfunctions. Replace if there are any abnormal
conditions.
• Check the steering wheel play, neutral position steering wheel, steering wheel turning force, and front wheel
turning angle. Refer to ST-5, "
Inspection".
• Check wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-8, "
Adjustment".
• Check the neutral position of the steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-55, "

INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Boot
• Check boot for cracks and replace it if damage exists.
Steering gear
• Check steering gear for damage and scratches to the inner wall. Replace if there are any abnormal condi- tions.
Outer Socket and Inner Socket
Check the following items and replace the component if outside specification:
BALL JOINT SWINGING FORCE• Hook a Tool at the point shown and pull the spring balance. Make
sure that the Tool reads the specified value when ball stud and
inner socket start to move. Replace outer socket (1) and inner
socket (2) if they are outside the standard.
BALL JOINT AXIAL END PLAY
• Apply an axial load of 490 N (50 kg-f, 110 lb-f) to ball stud. Using adial gauge, measure amount of stud movement and make sure
that the value is within the following specified range. Replace outer
socket (1) and inner socket (2) if the measured value is outside the
standard.

InspectionINFOID:0000000012430963
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Check the operation of the control linkage. Refer to TM-21, "Inspection".
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels incl uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leaks.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leaks at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leaks at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal and installation, slack in the guide
may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop
after hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no lea ks of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec-
ified level, if necessary.
• Summary of the inspection items:
*Power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.

SYSTEM
Provides idle neutral control when st
op/start operation is not performed.
Idle Neutral Control Start Condition
Idle neutral control is started when all of the following conditions are fulfilled. However, during idle neutral con-
trol, idle neutral control is stopped when any of the following conditions is not met or idle neutral control contin-
ues 30 seconds.
NOTE:
Stops or prohibits the idle neutral control when the TC M and ECM detect that the vehicle is in one of the fol-
lowing conditions.
• Engine coolant temperature and CVT fluid temperature are the specified temperature or more, or the speci-
fied temperature or less.
• When a transaxle malfunction occurs.
• When the vehicle detects DTC and is in the fail-safe mode.
• When idle speed increases due to heavy electric load*. *: When any one of rear window defogger switch, A/C s witch, headlamp, fog lamp is turned ON. In addition,
when the steering wheel is operated.
