Idle-Up System Check
1) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
2) Turn A/C switch OFF, if equipped.
3) Turn steering wheel fully and check idle speed.
Engine idle speed drops a little momentarily when steering wheel is turned fully but returns to its specified
level immediately. If power steering pressure switch connector is connected, check the same with that con-
nector disconnected. Momentary drop of engine idle speed should be less when it is connected than when
disconnected.
Power Steering Fluid Leakage Check
Start engine and turn steering wheel fully to the right and left so that maximum hydraulic pressure is applied to
system. Then visually check gear box, P/S pump and P/S fluid reservoir respectively and each joint of hydraulic
pressure piping for leakage. During this check, however, never keep steering wheel turned fully for longer than
10 seconds.
