SERVICE INFORMATION
If the high pressure hose on an Applied Vehicle needs to be replaced for any reason:
^ The hose now comes without the pressure sensor (refer above).
^ When replacing this hose, reuse the existing pressure sensor. Replace the pressure sensor ONLY IF there is a pressure sensor related issue.
^ Do not replace other related hoses unless necessary (i.e., do not replace as a set).
^ Do not damage the pressure sensor during removal or installation.
^ Always use a new 0-ring when installing a new or existing pressure sensor (refer above).
^ Pressure sensor mounting torque: 19.6 Nm (2.0 kg-m, 14.5 ft lb)
^ If only the pressure sensor needs replacement, do not replace any hoses.
^ Always replace both copper washers (mounted at the power steering pump).
CAUTIONS:
> Do not allow dirt or contamination to enter the hydraulic system.
> Always secure the pressure sensor mounting block in a soft jaw vise when removing and installing the pressure sensor. Do not clamp onto
the "banjo" end of the hose.
^ Refer to the appropriate Electronic Service Manual (ESM) for power steering hose removal, installation, and torque specifications.
