2-42. STEERING SYSTEM TESTS
These steering system tests may be run any time you have a steering problem or if you were sent
here by another test chain. Just follow the path, answering the questions. Additional information
and notes are given on the facing page when necessary.
The fold-out page shows the location of the major components of the steering in case you are not
familiar with them. These parts are shown in a schematic manner. Illustrations of the actual
components are given wherever applicable on the reference pages of the diagnostics.
Fold-out page FP-25 may be left open for reference while testing. The functional flow diagram
shows the mechanical and hydraulic parts of the system and how they interact. Even if the
hydraulic system fails, you will still be able to steer the vehicle, although it will require more effort.
