Power steering pump (2011 and earlier models) — removal and installation
Removal
1. Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal (see Engine electrical systems).
2. Using a large syringe or suction gun, siphon as much fluid out of the power steering fluid reservoir as possible. Place a drain pan under the vehicle to catch any fluid that spills out when the hoses are disconnected.
3. Loosen the right front wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle and support it securely on jack stands. Remove the right front wheel.
4. Remove the right front fender apron seal (see illustration).
20.4 Remove the three screws and the plastic inner seal from the fender well
5. Remove the drivebelt (see Tune-up and routine maintenance).
6. Detach the fluid feed hose from the pump (see illustration). Disconnect the electrical connector from the Power Steering Pressure (PSP) switch (see Power Steering Pressure (PSP) switch (2011 and earlier models) — check and replacement).
20.6 Installation details of the power steering pump (four-cylinder engine). Remove the banjo bolt (A) and the feed line fitting bolt (B)
7. Remove the pressure line-to-pump union bolt and separate the line from the pump see illustration 20.6). Use two wrenches, one to hold the pressure port fitting and one to hold the union bolt. Remove the sealing washers on each side of the fitting — these should be replaced when installing the pump.
8. Working through the power steering pulley, loosen the pump mounting bolts completely (see illustration).
20.8 Power steering pump pivot bolt (four- cylinder engine) turn the pulley until an opening is over the upper bolt for access
9. Lower the pump and remove the mounting bolts, then remove the pump.
Installation
10. Installation is the reverse of removal. Be sure to tighten the pressure line banjo bolt and the feed line fitting bolt. Adjust the drive-belt tension (see Tune-up and routine maintenance).
11. Top up the fluid level in the reservoir (see Tune-up and routine maintenance) and bleed the system (see Power steering system (2011 and earlier models) — bleeding).
