Power Steering Pressure Hose

The first task to replace the power steering fluid reservoir outlet hose requires removing the air cleaner outlet duct. The first step is draining maximum power steering fluid from the remote power steering fluid reservoir followed by front air deflector removal and placement of drain pans under the vehicle. The power steering professional disconnects both outlet hose sections from the pump and the reservoir. They remove the hose from the vehicle. The correct installation requires positioning the new power steering fluid reservoir outlet hose to join with the remote power steering fluid reservoir and Power Steering Pump. Clean remaining fluid from the vehicle before removing drain pans and then reinstall the front air deflector along with the air cleaner outlet duct. Complete the power steering system filling procedure and perform a bleeding process.

No, it is not necessary due to the presence of check valves, which minimize fluid loss.

Separate the power steering reservoir inlet hose and power steering gear outlet hose from the power steering cooler hose.

Ensure the hose is routed upward without sharp bends or contact with hot surfaces.

The hose should be routed upward above the clutch slave cylinder without sharp bends, kinks, or downward loops, and should not contact any sharp or hot surfaces.

Remove the front air deflector.

Clean any excess fluid, remove the drain pans, and reinstall the front compartment lower noise shield, front air deflector, and power steering pump pulley.
