INSTALLATION
PROCEDURE
1. INSTALL POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY
NOTICE:
(a) Install 2 service nuts to the steering main shaft. Recommended Service Nut: Thread Diameter 12.0 mm (0.472 in.) Thread Pitch 1.25 mm (0.0492 in.) | |
(b) Simultaneously rotate the service nut that was installed first counterclockwise and rotate the service nut that was installed second clockwise to lock them.
NOTICE:
Do not apply excessive torque to the service nuts by using a tool such as an impact wrench.
HINT:
The service nuts are used for turning the steering main shaft during inspection of the steering main shaft rotating torque.
Remove the service nuts after performing this procedure.
Grease |
(c) Apply grease to a new electric power steering motor shaft damper.
NOTICE:
First wipe off the existing grease from the serrated part, and then apply the dedicated grease supplied with a new power steering ECU assembly or electric power steering column sub-assembly.
(d) Install the electric power steering motor shaft damper to the electric power steering column sub-assembly.
(e) Temporarily install the power steering ECU assembly to the electric power steering column sub-assembly with the 2 bolts. NOTICE: When temporarily installing the 2 bolts to the power steering ECU assembly, do not tighten them all the way down. | |
(f) Secure the steering column assembly in a vise using aluminum plates, cloths and wooden blocks. NOTICE:
|
|
(g) Rotate the steering main shaft 180 degrees counterclockwise and then 180 degrees clockwise at a speed of 60 rpm, and repeat 2 to 3 times to center the axis of the power steering ECU assembly. [*1] | |
(h) Tighten the 2 bolts. [*2]
Torque:
18.5 N·m {189 kgf·cm, 14 ft·lbf}
(i) Using a torque wrench, measure the turning torque of the steering main shaft. Preload: 1.3 to 2.7 N*m (13.3 to 27.5 kgf*cm, 11.6 to 23.8 in.*lbf) NOTICE: Ensure that there is no abnormal resistance during rotation. If the turning torque is not as specified, loosen the 2 bolts and repeat steps [*1] and [*2] to recenter the axis of the power steering ECU assembly. | |
(j) Remove the 2 service nuts.
(k) Connect the connector. | |
