Precautions for HosesBAS0008G
HOSE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

To prevent damage to rubber hose, do not pry off rubber hose
with tapered tool or screwdriver.

To reinstall the rubber hose securely, make sure that hose inser-
tion length and orientation is correct. (If tube is equipped with
hose stopper, insert rubber hose into tube until it butts up
against hose stopper.)
HOSE CLAMPING

If old rubber hose is re-used, install hose clamp in its original
position (at the indentation where the old clamp was). If there is
a trace of tube bulging left on the old rubber hose, align rubber
hose at that position.

Discard old clamps; replace with new ones.

After installing plate clamps, apply force to them in the direction
of the arrow, tightening rubber hose equally all around.

XENON HEADLAMP
Xenon type headlamp is adapted to the low beam headlamps. Xenon bulbs do not use a filament. Instead,
they produce light when a high voltage current is passed between two tungsten electrodes through a mixture
of xenon (an inert gas) and certain other metal halides. In addition to added lighting power, electronic control
of the power supply gives the headlamps stable quality and tone color.
Following are some of the many advantages of the xenon type headlamp.

The light produced by the headlamps is a white color comparable to sunlight that is easy on the eyes.

Light output is nearly double that of halogen headlamps, affording increased area of illumination.

The light features a high relative spectral distribution at wavelengths to which the human eye is most sen-
sitive. This means that even in the rain, more light is reflected back from the road surface toward the vehi-
cle, for added visibility.

Power consumption is approximately 25 percent less than halogen headlamps, reducing battery load.
CAN Communication System DescriptionBKS001MW
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.

8. Remove fixing nut and bolt, then separate lower shaft from
steering column assembly (joint part).
9. Remove steering column assembly mounting nuts, then remove
steering column assembly from vehicle.
10. Loosen clamp, and then remove hole cover seal from hole
cover.
11. Remove mounting nuts of hole cover, and then remove clamp
and hole cover from dash panel.
12. Raise vehicle.
13. Remove fixing bolt of lower shaft, and then remove lower shaft
from vehicle.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Check component parts for damage or other malfunctions. Replace if there are.

Measure the length L as shown in the figure if vehicle has been
involved in a minor collision. Replace steering column assembly
if outside the standard.

Measure steering column assembly rotating torque using pre-
load gauge [SST: ST3127S000]. Replace steering column
assembly if outside the standard.

16. Measure pinion rotating torque using the preload adapter [SST]
and preload gauge [SST] to make sure that the measured value
is within the standard. Readjust if the value is outside the stan-
dard. Replace steering gear assembly if the value is outside the
standard after readjusting or adjusting screw rotating torque is 5
N·m (0.51 kg-m, 44 in-lb) or less.
17. Apply recommended Liquid Gasket to inner socket and turn pin-
ion fully to left with inner socket installed to gear housing assembly.
18. Set dial indicator as shown in the figure. Measure vertical move-
ment of rack assembly when pinion is turned clockwise with
torque of 19.6 N·m (2.0 kg-m, 14 in-lb). Readjust adjusting
screw angle if the measured value is outside the standard.
Replace gear assembly if the measured value is still outside the
standard or adjusting screw rotating torque is 5 N·m (0.51 kg-m,
44 in-lb) or less.
19. Install large end of boot to gear housing assembly.
20. Install small end of boot to inner socket boot mounting groove.
21. Install boot clamp to boot small end.
22. Install large side of boot clamp.

Tighten large side of boot with boot clamp (stainless wire).

Wrap clamp around boot groove for two turns. Insert a flat-
bladed screwdriver in loops on both ends of wire. Twist 4 to
4.5 turns while pulling them with force of approximately 98 N
(10 kg, 22 lb).

Twist boot clamp as shown. Pay attention to relationship
between winding and twisting directions.

Twisted point of clamp is in the opposite side of adjusting
screw as shown in the figure (to prevent contact with other
parts).

Bend cut end of the wire toward rack axial as shown in the fig-
ure after twisting the wire 4 to 4.5 turns so that cut end does
not contact with boot.
CAUTION:
Keep gap from cylinder tube 5 mm (0.20 in) or more.
23. Install cylinder tubes to gear housing assembly.
24. Adjust inner socket to standard length L, and then tighten lock
nut to the specified torque. Refer to PS-20, "
COMPONENTS" .
Check length of inner socket L again after tightening lock nut .
Make sure that the length is the standard.
CAUTION:
Adjust toe-in after this procedure. Length achieved after
toe-in adjustment is not necessary the above value.

Disconnect “M” terminal of starter motor.
1. Continuity test (between “S” terminal and switch body).

No continuity... Replace.
2. Continuity test (between “S” terminal and “M” terminal).

No continuity... Replace.
Pinion/Clutch Check
1. Inspect pinion teeth.

Replace pinion if teeth are worn or damaged. (Also check
condition of ring gear teeth.)
2. Inspect reduction gear teeth (If equipped).

Replace reduction gear if teeth are worn or damaged. (Also
check condition of armature shaft gear teeth.)
3. Check to see if pinion locks in one direction and rotates
smoothly in the opposite direction.

If it locks or rotates in both directions, or unusual resistance is
evident... Replace.
