Toyota 44310-06071 Power Steering Pump

Before pulling the power steering pump, the cable connecting the negative terminal of the battery should be disconnected. Make sure to remove and dispose of old power steering fluid before refilling; to do this flush a large syringe or suction gun with fresh fluid and suck out all the fluid you can from the power steering's fluid reservoir and using a drain pan, spill tray or sink, catch all the levels the hoses as they disconnect. The right front wheel lug nuts should be loosened, the car needs to be lifted and safely placed on jack stands and then the right front wheel removed. Remove the right front fender apron seal by pulling it out together with the plastic inner seal with reference to three screws in the fender well. Next, remove the drivebelt. Cover the pump with a rag and then unscrew the banjo bolt and then, remove the feed line fitting bolt to disconnect the fluid feed hose then, remove the connector from the Power Steering Pressure switch. You should now unscrew the pressure line-to-pump union bolt and separate the pressure line from the pump, always replacing the sealing washers for new once. Last, you unscrew the pivot, adjuster and you may have other mounting bolts to unscrew to remove the pump, although the upper screw does not come right out but should be unscrewed till the pump detaches. In installation, reverse the removal procedures and when connecting the pressure line, the feed line fitting bolt, the adjuster and pivot bolts use the recommended torque. Tighten the drivebelt tension, add more fluid into the reservoir and then reapair then bleed the system.
