INSPECTION
MAGNET CLUTCH

Inspect clutch plate and clutch pulley for signs of oil.

Check clutch pulley bearings for noise and grease leakage.

Using and ohmmeter, measure resistance of clutch coil between
clutch coil lead wire (1) and compressor body.
If measured resistance is not within tolerance, replace coil.
Standard resistance: 2.5 ± 4.5
at 20C, 68F
COMPRESSOR THERMAL SWITCH
Use an ohmmeter to check thermal switch for continuity. If there is
no continuity, replace it.
REMOVAL
1) Remove compressor assembly from vehicle. Refer to COM-
PRESSOR ASSEMBLY in this section.
2) Fix clutch plate (1) with special tool (A) and remove clutch plate
bolt (2).

FLOW CONTROL VALVE
As the discharge rate of the P/S pump increases in proportion to the
pump revolution speed, a flow control valve is added to control it so
that the optimum amount of fluid for steering operation is supplied
according to the engine speed (driving condition).
Described below is its operation at different engine speed.

Increase engine speed to about 1,500 r / min (rpm). Close
gauge valve gradually while watching pressure increase indi-
cated by gauge and take reading of relief pressure (maximum
hydraulic pressure).

When it is higher than specified values, possible cause is mal-
function of relief valve.

When it is lower than specified values, possible cause is either
failure of P / S pump or settling of relief valve spring.
CAUTION:
Be sure not to close gauge valve for longer than 10 se-
conds.

Next, open gauge valve fully and increase engine speed to
about 1,500 r / min (rpm). Then turn steering wheel to the left
or right fully and take reading of relief pressure.

function of relief valve.

When it is lower than specified values, possible cause is failure
in steering gear box. Replace gear box.
CAUTION:
Be sure not to hold steering wheel at fully turned posi-
tion for longer than 10 seconds.
BOOT
STEERING RACK BOOT CHECK
Check boot for crack and damage which, if any, means possibility
of rusty gear, entry of dust or lack of grease. Also, check if any of
such faulty conditions exists.
Check steering rack boot for dent or breakage.
If there is a dent, keep boot in most compressed state for some se-
conds to correct dent.

3C1-2 AIR BAG STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This double tube type steering column has the following three important features in addition to the steering function:

The column is energy absorbing, designed to compress in a front-end collision.

The ignition switch and lock are mounted conveniently on this column.

With the column mounted lock, the ignition and steering operations can be locked to inhibit theft of the vehicle.
To insure the energy absorbing action, it is important that only the specified screws, bolts, and nuts be used as
designated and that they are tightened to the specified torque. When the column assembly is removed from the
vehicle, special care must be taken in handling it. Use of a steering wheel puller other than the one recommended
in this manual or a sharp blow on the end of the steering shaft, leaning on the assembly, or dropping the assembly
could shear the plastic shear pins which maintain column length and position.
The driver air bag (inflator) module is one of the supplemental restraint (air bag) system components and is
mounted to the center of the steering wheel. During certain frontal crashes, the air bag system supplements the
restraint of the driver's and passenger's seat belts by deploying the air bags. The air bag (inflator) module should
be handled with care to prevent accidental deployment. When servicing, be sure to observe all WARNINGS in this
section. Refer to ªSERVICE PRECAUTIONSº in Section 10B.

3E-2 REAR SUSPENSION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Rear suspension is 5 link type of rigid axle which consists of coil springs, rear axle, shock absorbers, upper rods,
lower rods and lateral rod.
The lower rod and upper rod are connected with the axle and body by using bushes so that axle moves up and
down with bushes as their supporting points.
The shock absorber is installed between the body and axle to absorb up-and-down movement of the vehicle body.

ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:

To prevent any problem caused by washing solution, do
not wash joint boots. Degreasing of those parts with cloth
is allowed.

For M / T vehicle with H25 engine
To ensure full performance of joint as designed, be sure
to distinguish between two types of grease in repair set
and apply specified volume to respective joint. i.e. yellow
grease to wheel side joint and black one to differential
side.

Bend each boot band against forward rotation.

Do not squeeze or distort boot when fastening it with
bands.
Distorted boot caused by squeezing air may reduce its du-
rability.
1) Fully apply joint grease to wheel side joint.
Use joint grease in the tube included in spare part.
2) Fit wheel side boot on shaft.
Fill up inside of boot with joint grease of about 90 gram.
Before fixing boot band, insert screwdriver into boot on joint side
and allow air to enter boot so that air pressure in boot becomes
the same as atmospheric pressure.
3) Fixing boot band.
4) Install boot onto drive shaft till its small diameter side fits to shaft
groove and fix there with boot band.
5) Install cage to shaft.
CAUTION:
Install cage directing smaller outside diameter side to
shaft end.
6) Install circlip by using snap ring plier.
