PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
POWER STEERING FLUID
Checking Fluid Level
INFOID:0000000006247239
Check fluid level, referring to the scale on the reservoir tank.
Use HOT range for fluid temperatures of 50
°
– 80
°
C (122
°
– 176
°
F).
Use COLD range for fluid temperatures of 0
°
– 30
°
C (32
°
– 86
°
F).
CAUTION:
• Do not overfill.
• Do not reuse any power steering fluid.
• Recommended fluid is Genuine NISSAN PSF or equivalent.
Refer to
MA-18, "FOR USA AND CANADA : Fluids and Lubri-
(United States and Canada),
(Mexico).
Checking Fluid Leakage
INFOID:0000000006247240
Check the hydraulic piping lines for improper attachment, leaks,
cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing and deterioration.
1. Run the engine until the fluid temperature reaches 50
°
– 80
°
C
(122
°
– 176
°
F) in the reservoir tank. Keep engine speed idle.
CAUTION:
Do not allow steering fluid reservoir tank to go below the
MIN level line. Check tank frequently and add fluid as
needed.
2. Turn the steering wheel to the right and left several times.
3. Hold the steering wheel at each “locked” position for five sec-
onds to check for fluid leakage.
CAUTION:
Do not hold steering wheel in the locked position for more than 10 seconds. (There is the possibil-
ity that the oil pump may be damaged.)
4. If fluid leakage at a connection is noticed, loosen the connection and then retighten. Do not over-tighten
connector as this can damage O-ring, washer and connector. Refer to
.
5. If fluid leakage from the oil pump is noticed, check the oil pump. Refer to
6. Check steering gear boots for accumulation of fluid, indicating a leak from the steering gear.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse copper washers.
Air Bleeding Hydraulic System
INFOID:0000000008188102
Incomplete air bleeding causes the following:
• Air bubbles in reservoir tank
• Clicking noise in oil pump
• Excessive buzzing in oil pump
When this happens bleed the air again.
1. With the engine not started, turn steering wheel fully right to left several times. When fluid level is lowered,
refill reservoir. Repeat process until fluid level is stabilized.
2. Start the engine and turn the steering wheel fully to the right and left several times.
CAUTION:
Do not allow steering fluid reservoir tank to go below the MIN level line. Check tank frequently and
add fluid as needed.
NOTE:
When the vehicle is stationary or while the steering wheel is being turned slowly, some noise may be
heard from the oil pump or gear. This noise is normal and does not affect any system.
3. Run the engine at idle speed. Hold the steering wheel at each "locked" position for three seconds.
CAUTION:

< PERIODIC MAINTENANCE >
POWER STEERING FLUID
Do not hold steering wheel in the locked position for more than 10 seconds. (There is the possibil-
ity that oil pump may be damaged.)
4. Repeat step 3 several times at about three second intervals.
5. Check for air bubbles, cloudy fluid and fluid leakage.
6. If air bubbles or cloudiness exists, perform steps 3 and 4 again until air bubbles and cloudiness do not
exist.
7. Stop the engine and check fluid level.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
STEERING WHEEL
On-Vehicle Inspection and Service
INFOID:0000000006247242
CHECKING CONDITION OF INSTALLATION
• Check the installation condition of the steering gear assembly, front suspension, axle and steering column.
• Check if movement exists when the steering wheel is pushed up and down, left and right and in the axial
direction.
• Check if the nuts for the steering gear assembly are loose. Refer to
ST-22, "Removal and Installation"
.
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL PLAY
1. Turn the tires straight ahead and start the engine. Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right to the point
where the tires start moving, and measure the distance that the outer circumference of the steering wheel
travels.
CHECKING NEUTRAL POSITION ON STEERING WHEEL
• Check the neutral position on the steering wheel after confirming the front wheel alignment is correct. Refer
FSU-7, "Front Wheel Alignment"
.
1. Turn the tires straight ahead, check if the steering wheel is in the neutral position.
2. If it is not in the neutral position, remove the steering wheel and reinstall it correctly on the steering stem,
within two teeth of the original position.
3. If the neutral position cannot be attained by repositioning the steering wheel within two teeth on the steer-
ing stem, loosen the tie-rod lock nuts of the steering outer sockets, then adjust the tie-rods by the same
amount in the opposite direction of the steering wheel.
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL TURNING FORCE
1. Park vehicle on a level, dry surface and set parking brake.
2. Start engine.
3. Bring the power steering fluid up to adequate operating temperature. Make sure the fluid temperature is
approximately 50
°
– 80
°
C (122
°
– 176
°
F).
4. Tires need to be inflated to specified pressure. Refer to
End play of the axle direction for steering wheel
Refer to
LGIA0024E

STEERING WHEEL
5. Check steering wheel turning force using Tool when steering
wheel has been turned 360
°
from the neutral position.
6. If steering wheel turning force is out of specification, inspect the
following:
• Steering column. Refer to
ST-22, "Removal and Installation"
• Power steering oil pump. Refer to
7. If steering column and power steering oil pump meet specifications, inspect steering gear and replace as
necessary. Refer to
ST-22, "Removal and Installation"
CHECKING FRONT WHEEL TURNING ANGLE
When checking the front wheel turning angle, refer to
FSU-25, "Wheel Alignment (Unladen*1)"

POWER STEERING OIL PUMP
On-Vehicle Inspection and Service
INFOID:0000000006247243
CHECKING RELIEF OIL PRESSURE
CAUTION:
Before starting work, confirm that the belt tension is within specification. Refer to
(VQ40DE),
EM-153, "Checking Drive Belts"
1. Connect the Tool between the power steering oil pump dis-
charge connector and the high pressure hose, then bleed the air
from the hydraulic circuit with the shut-off valve fully open. Refer
ST-13, "Air Bleeding Hydraulic System"
.
2. Start the engine. Run the engine until the power steering fluid temperature in reservoir tank reaches 50 –
80
°
C (122 – 176
°
F).
CAUTION:
• Warm up the engine with the shut-off valve fully opened. If the engine is started with the shut-off
valve closed, fluid pressure in the power steering oil pump increases to maximum pressure.
This will raise fluid temperature excessively.
• Do not contact the belt with the hose while the engine is running.
3. With the engine at idle, close the shut-off valve and read the relief oil pressure.
CAUTION:
Do not close the shut-off valve of the pressure gauge for more than 10 seconds.
4. After measurement, open the shut-off valve slowly.
• If relief oil pressure is outside the specification, replace the power steering oil pump. Refer to
5. After inspection, disconnect the oil pressure gauge and oil pressure gauge adapter from the hydraulic cir-
cuit, then connect the power steering high pressure hose using new copper sealing washers. Add fluid
and bleed the air from the hydraulic circuit thoroughly. Refer to
ST-13, "Air Bleeding Hydraulic System"
CAUTION:
Do not reuse copper sealing washers.

REMOVAL
1. Set the front wheels in the straight-ahead position.
2. Remove the driver air bag module. Refer to
SR-5, "Removal and Installation"
3. Disconnect the steering wheel switches and heated steering wheel connector.
4. Remove the steering wheel center nut.
5. Remove the steering wheel, using Tools.
6. Inspect the steering wheel near the puller holes for damage. If
damage is found, replace the steering wheel.
• Remove the steering wheel rear cover and steering wheel
switches, if required.
CAUTION:
Place a piece of tape across the spiral cable so it will not be
rotated out of position.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• Align spiral cable correctly when installing steering wheel. Make
sure that the spiral cable is in the neutral position. The neutral
position is detected by turning left 2.5 revolutions from the right
end position and ending with the locating pin at the top.
• If equipped with VDC, refer to
STEERING ANGLE SENSOR NEUTRAL POSITION : Special
(TYPE 1),
STEERING ANGLE SENSOR NEUTRAL POSITION : Special
(TYPE 2) for steering angle sensor adjust-
ment.
• After the work is completed, perform self-diagnosis to make sure
no malfunction is detected. Refer to
.
• Tighten steering wheel center nut to specification. Refer to
ST-19, "Removal and Installation"
.
CAUTION:
• The spiral cable may snap due to steering operation if the cable is not installed in the correct posi-
tion.
• With the steering linkage disconnected, the cable may snap by turning the steering wheel beyond
the limited number of turns. The spiral cable can be turned counterclockwise about 2.5 turns from
the neutral position.
