Hydraulic System Bleeding

  1. Raise and support front of vehicle. Fill reservoir. Wait about 3 minutes, and refill reservoir if necessary. With engine off, turn steering wheel lock-to-lock 3 to 4 times. Check fluid level. Refill as necessary. Run engine for 3-5 seconds. Stop engine and recheck fluid level. Refill as necessary.
  2. With engine at idle, turn steering wheel lock-to-lock 3 to 4 times. Turn off engine. Recheck fluid level. Refill as necessary. Lower vehicle. Turn steering wheel lock-to-lock with engine at idle.
  3. With wheels in straight-ahead position and engine off, check fluid level. If fluid rises, air is trapped in system. Repeat bleeding procedure. Ensure system is completely bleed. If air remains in system, pump may make humming noise or steering may feel heavy.
