| There is no provision for repairing the power steering pump. If problems are reported, trace the fault by means of a pressure test and a leakage test. Renew the power steering pump if there is a fault. |
| The hydraulic fluid circuit on right-hand drive vehicles is the same as on left-hand drive vehicles, except that the hydraulic pipes are extended from left to right on the steering box. |
Note | t
| Always check steering system for leaks if fluid level is low in reservoir. |
| t
| If leakage is visible at the pipe connections first tighten connections and wipe dry, then check for leaks again. |
