Power Steering Pump

Begin power steering pump removal by disconnecting the negative battery terminal cable first before waiting at least ninety seconds to disable the SRS system but initialization might be necessary after reconnecting to some systems. The required components for pump removal include the front wheel RH followed by the front fender apron seal front RH, the V-bank cover sub-assembly and the air cleaner hose assembly and the air cleaner assembly. The first step involves removing the fan and generator V belt while draining all power steering fluid. To disconnect the suction hose you should move the clip to slide it off from the vane pump. First disconnect the power steering oil pressure sensor connector followed by the wire harness clamp removal. A single bolt allows you to disconnect the pressure feed tube after which you should remove its gasket. The completion of vane pump assembly removal depends on unbolting and eliminating the two securing bolts.

Use a screwdriver to remove the O-ring from the front side plate and the O-ring from the front housing, again taking care to tape the screwdriver tip.

Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal and wait at least 90 seconds to disable the SRS system.
