• Q: How to remove the power Rack And Pinion from a hatchback on 2009 Toyota Yaris?

  A: The first step to remove the power rack and pinion from the hatchback consists of positioning the front wheels directly forward before separating the negative battery cable. Start by removing the hood through its 4 bolts before moving to get rid of the wiper arm head caps and finally detach both left and right wiper arm assemblies with their blades. Take off the hood and its cowl top seal as well as the cowl top ventilator louver sub-assembly and left louver. Unfasten the windshield wiper motor and link before detaching the cowl to register duct sub-assembly together with the cowl top panel outer. The column hole cover silencer sheet becomes accessible when you remove the floor carpet and detach two clips. Secure the steering wheel assembly with a seat belt to protect the spiral cable while marking the sliding yoke of the steering intermediate shaft assembly and power rack and pinion before disconnecting bolt A to remove bolt B for steering intermediate shaft assembly separation. Begin by removing the No. 1 steering column hole cover sub-assembly through the process of clip A detaching and the body separation of clip B. The first step requires removal of both front wheels together with their tie rod end components before taking out the front stabilizer link assemblies. You should take off the front suspension lower arms from both sides. The engine suspension occurs by removing the radio setting condenser and air-fuel ratio sensor wiring bracket bolt so that the engine hanger (Part No.: 12281-21010) can be installed with bolt (91642-81025) torqued to 40 Nm (408 kgf-cm, 30 ft-lbf). Embed the engine assembly into a sling device attached to a chain block as you remove the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly through the process of separating the engine moving control rod then fastening it to a transmission jack then unfastening the six bolts. End the power rack and pinion removal by carefully taking away the 2 bolts and 2 nuts which need to remain static during operation.
