INSTALL POWER STEERING ECU WITH MOTOR ASSEMBLY
Note
When using a vise, do not overtighten it.
Install a new electric power steering motor shaft damper to the electric power steering column sub-assembly.
Install a new electric power steering motor shaft spacer to the electric power steering column sub-assembly.
Temporarily install the power steering ECU with motor assembly to the electric power steering column sub-assembly with 3 bolts.
Note
Bolt (A) is shorter than bolt (B). Make sure to install them to the correct positions.
When temporarily installing the 3 bolts to the power steering motor assembly, do not tighten them all the way down.
| *1 | Service Nut |
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.) |
Simultaneously rotate the service nut that was installed first counterclockwise and rotate the service nut that was installed second clockwise to lock them.
Note
Do not apply excess torque to the service nuts by using a tool such as an impact wrench.
Tech Tips
These nuts are installed to turn the steering main shaft. They should be removed after inspecting the steering main shaft rotating torque.
| *1 | Aluminum Plate |
| *2 | Wooden Block |
Secure the steering column assembly in a vice using aluminum plates and wooden blocks as shown in the illustration.
Note
Do not overtighten the vice, as the steering column assembly may become deformed.
Secure the steering column assembly so that power steering ECU assembly with motor is directly upright.
Support the steering column assembly with a wooden block or similar item to ensure that it does not fall.
Turn the steering main shaft once 180 degrees to the left and then 180 degrees to the right at a speed of 60 rpm, and repeat 2 to 3 times to adjust the axis of the power steering ECU with motor assembly.
Tighten the 3 bolts.
Note
Make sure not to move the power steering motor assembly after adjusting the axis.
Measure the turning torque of the steering main shaft.
Note
Ensure that there is no abnormal resistance during rotation.
If the torque is not as specified, readjust the axis of the power steering ECU with motor assembly.
Remove the 2 service nuts from the steering main shaft.
Connect the connector to the power steering ECU with motor assembly.
CONNECT ECU WIRE SUB-ASSEMBLY
Connect the 2 connectors to the power steering ECU assembly.
INSTALL POWER STEERING ECU PROTECTOR
Install a new power steering ECU protector to the power steering ECU with motor assembly.
INSTALL STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
Tech Tips
When replacing the steering lock actuator assembly, refer to Service Bulletin.
for Manual Tilt and Manual Telescopic Steering Column:
Secure the steering column assembly in a vise using aluminum plates.
Note
Do not overtighten the vise.
Temporarily install the steering lock actuator assembly to the steering column assembly with 2 new tapered-head bolts.
Tighten the 2 tapered-head bolts until the bolt heads break off.
for Power Tilt and Power Telescopic Steering Column:
Temporarily install the steering lock actuator assembly to the steering column assembly with 2 new tapered-head bolts.
Tighten the 2 tapered-head bolts until the bolt heads break off.
