    Inspection 

  14. Check the pressure control valve for wear, burrs, and other damage to the edges of the grooves in the valve.

    G01955038
  15. Inspect the bore of the pressure control valve on the pump housing for scratches and wear.
  16. Slip the pressure control valve back in the pump housing, and check that it moves in and out smoothly. If OK, go to step 17; if not, replace the pump as an assembly. The pressure control valve is not available separately.

  17. Attach a hose (A) to the end of the pressure control valve (B) as shown in Fig 5 . Then submerge the pressure control valve in a container of power steering fluid or solvent (C), and blow in the hose.
    • If air bubbles leak through the valve at less than 98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm2 , 14.2 psi), replace the pump as an assembly. The pressure control valve is not available separately.
    • If the pressure control valve is OK, set it aside for reassembly later.

    G01955041
  19. Inspect each part shown with an asterisk in Fig 1 ; if any of them are worn or damaged, replace the pump as an assembly.

    Reassembly 

  20. Install the new pump seal (A) (with its grooved side facing in) into the pump housing (B) by hand first, then drive it in using the special tools until the seal is fully seated in the pump housing.

    G01955046
  26. Apply the power steering fluid to the rubber seal (E) black, and install it in the slot (F) of the outer case.
  27. Apply power steering fluid to the slipper seal (G) (white), and install it on top of the rubber seal you just installed.
  28. Align the slot (A) in the outer case with the roll pin hole (B) on the cover.

    G01955047
  29. Install the cam ring (C) by aligning the slot (D) with the slot (A) in the outer case.
  30. Insert the roll pin (E) into the slots between the cam ring and outer case, then push the roll pin into the set hole.
  31. Install the rotor (A) in the cam ring (B).

    G01955048
  32. Set the 11 vanes (C) in the grooves in the rotor.

    Make sure that the round ends (D) of the vanes are in contact with the sliding surface of the cam ring.

  33. Place the side plate (A) on the cam ring with its"." mark (B) facing upward, and align the roll pin set hole (C) in the side plate with the roll pin end (D).
