STEERING
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION: THIS SYSTEM REQUIRES THE USE OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM / POWER STEERING FLUID WHICH
MEETS DAIMLER CHRYSLER SPECIFICATION MS-10838, SUCH AS MOPAR PART NUMBER 05142893AA, OR
EQUIVALENT, DO NOT MIX POWER STEERING FLUID TYPES. DAMAGE MAY RESULT TO THE POWER
STEERING PUMP AND SYSTEM IF ANY OTHER FLUID IS USED, AND DO NOT OVERFILL.

Power steering systems consist of:


• Steering column & Intermediate Shaft
• Rack and pinion steering gear
• Belt driven hydraulic steering pump
• Pump pressure, supply and return hoses
• Oil Cooler
• Hydraulic cooling fan (5.7L only)

OPERATION
The steering column intermediate shaft attaches the steering column to the gear pinion. The rotation of the pinion
moves the gear rack from side-to-side. This lateral action of the rack pushes and pulls the tie rods to change the
direction of the front wheels.
Power assist is provided by an engine mounted hydraulic pump. The pump supplies hydraulic fluid to the steering
gear. All vehicles are equipped with an oil cooler.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING


POWER STEERING SYSTEM
There is some noise in all power steering systems. One of the most common is a hissing sound evident at a
standstill/parking, or when the steering is at the end of it’s travel. Hiss is a high frequency noise similar to that
of a water tap being closed slowly. The noise is present in all valves that have a high velocity fluid passing through
an orifice. There is no relationship between this noise and steering performance.

POWER STEERING FLOW AND PRESSURE


The following procedure is used to test the operation
of the power steering system on the vehicle. This test
will provide the gallons per minute (GPM) or flow rate
of the power steering pump along with the maximum
relief pressure. Perform test any time a power steering
system problem is present. This test will determine if
the power steering pump or power steering gear is not
functioning properly. The following pressure and flow
test is performed using Power Steering Analyzer Tool
kit 6815 (3) Adapter Kit 6893 and 6825A.
19 - 4 STEERING WK
FLOW AND PRESSURE TEST
1. Check the power steering belt to ensure it is in good condition and adjusted properly.
2. Connect pressure gauge hose from the Power Steering Analyzer to Tube 6825A.
3. Connect Adapter 6826 to Power Steering Analyzer test valve end.
4. Disconnect the high pressure hose from the power steering pump.
5. Connect the tube to the pump hose fitting.
6. Connect the power steering hose from the steering gear to the adapter.
7. Open the test valve completely.
8. Start engine and let idle long enough to circulate power steering fluid through flow/pressure test gauge and to get
air out of the fluid. Then shut off engine.
9. Check fluid level, add fluid as necessary. Start engine again and let idle.
10. Gauge should read below 862 kPa (125 psi), if above, inspect the hoses for restrictions and repair as neces-
sary. The initial pressure reading should be in the range of 345-552 kPa (50-80 psi).
11. Increase the engine speed to 1500 RPM and read the flow meter. If the flow rate (GPM) is below specification,
(refer to pump specification chart for GPM) the pump should be replaced.

CAUTION: The following test procedure involves testing maximum pump pressure output and flow control
valve operation. Do not leave valve closed for more than three seconds as the pump could be damaged.

12. Close valve fully three times and record highest pressure indicated each time. All three readings must be
above specifications and within 345 kPa (50 psi) of each other.
• Pressures above specifications but not within 345 kPa (50 psi) of each other, replace pump.
• Pressures within 345 kPa (50 psi) of each other but below specifications, replace pump.
13. Open the test valve and turn the steering wheel to the extreme left and right positions three times against the
stops. Record the highest pressure reading at each position. Compare readings to the pump specifications
chart. If pressures readings are not within 50 psi of each other, the gear is leaking internally and must be
replaced.

CAUTION: Do not force the pump to operate against the stops for more than 2 to 3 seconds at a time
because, pump damage will result.

tion of the power steering and hydraulic fan systems
on the vehicle. This test will provide the gallons per
minute (GPM) or flow rate of the power steering pump
along with any maximum relief pressure. Perform test
anytime a power steering system problem is present.
This test will determine if the power steering pump,
hydraulic fan, and power steering gear are not func-
tioning properly. It will also determine if the flow com-
ing out of the hydraulic fan motor is sufficient for the
power steering gear. The following pressure and flow
test is performed using the Power Steering Analyzer
Tool kit 6815 (4) and Adapter kit 8630.

WARNING
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

The steering column on vehicles with an auto-


matic transmission may not be equipped with an
internal locking shaft that allows the ignition key
cylinder to be locked with the key. Alternative
methods of locking the steering wheel for service
will have to be used.
The tilt column has been designed to be serviced
as an assembly, less the wiring, switches, shrouds
(2 & 5), steering wheel (3), airbag (4) etc. Most
steering column components can be serviced
without removing the steering column (1) from the
vehicle.
The airbag system is a sensitive, complex electro-
mechanical unit. Before attempting to diagnose,
remove or install the airbag system components
you must first disconnect and isolate the battery
negative (ground) cable. Then wait two minutes for
the system capacitor to discharge. Failure to do
so could result in accidental deployment of the
airbag and possible personal injury. The fasteners, screws, and bolts, originally used for the airbag com-
ponents, have special coatings and are specifically designed for the airbag system. They must never be
replaced with any substitutes. Anytime a new fastener is needed, replace with the correct fasteners pro-
vided in the service package or fasteners listed in the parts books.
Safety goggles should be worn at all times when working on steering columns.

MODULE-STEERING CONTROL
DESCRIPTION
WARNING: The Steering Control Module (SCM) must be replaced in the event of a frontal impact event
where the front airbags have been deployed. The clockspring is integral to the SCM and is not reusable.

This vehicle is equipped with a Steering Control Mod-


ule (SCM) that houses an integral clockspring. It is an
interface for switches such as ignition, lighting, wipers,
horn, speed control, and remote radio. The SCM
receives switch input and either directly sends or
buses the outputs to the proper destinations. The
module communicates via the Controller Area Network
(CAN) B data bus. If the vehicle is equipped with ESP,
the module is equipped with a steering angle sensor.
Steering angle data is sent over the CAN C data bus.
WK COLUMN - SERVICE INFORMATION 19 - 49
The Steering Control Module (SCM) is mounted to the
steering column shaft. The SCM is located under the
steering column shroud and is attached to the steering
column with two screws at the upper portion of the
module. A key on the cancel cam indexes with a key-
way on the steering shaft. There are five electrical
connections on the column side of the SCM. The mod-
ule connects to the vehicles wiring harness with two
connectors; a 4-way which is a pass through for the
airbag squibs, and a 16-way. The other three connec-
tors are for the hazard and multi-function switches and
are concealed when the switches are in place. Any
switched input that would cause a vehicle system to
function that does not require that the key be ON,
such as turning on the lights or sounding the horn,
prompts the SCM to wake up on the CAN data bus
network. If equipped with ESP the steering angle
sensor must be recalibrated using the scan tool.

The components that are contained within or attach to the SCM are:
• Clockspring - The clockspring is integral to and serviced as a unit with the Steering Control Module (SCM).
• Connectors - The steering wheel side of the SCM contains four connectors. These consist of a 2-way, a
6-way and two squib connectors. Two short harnesses connect the steering wheel mounted airbag to the
clockspring. These circuits pass directly through the SCM and are connected to the vehicle wiring at the 4-way
connector located on the column side of the module. These circuits are directly connected to the ORC. The
6-way connector contains the horn signal and horn return circuits. The horn is an input to the SCM. The SCM
receives the switch input and sends a bussed message over CAN B Bus. The 6-way connector also contains
2-speed control sense circuits and a speed control sense return. These circuits pass through and go directly to
the PCM.
• Hazard Switch - The hazard switch is located on the column side of the SCM. The FCM provides a 12-volt
sense to the hazard switch. When the hazard switch is latched ON the sense circuit is connected to ground.
Pulling the sense circuit voltage low indicates a request for hazard operation. The hazard switch is attached to
the SCM using locking tabs and ears and can be serviced separately.
• Ignition switch - The ignition switch is a combination of direct power feed and a position sensor. The SCM
sends a 5-volt reference to the MUX portion of the switch. The SCM determines switch positions and sends
this information over the CAN B Bus. The ignition sense inputs to the SCM are ignition switch sense (MUX
reference) and ignition switch sense return. The SCM 9decodes9 the ignition switch status input to determine
the current position of the ignition switch because the switch is a resistive MUX component. The voltage val-
ues of the ignition switch changes depending on the position of the switch.
• Left Multi-Function Switch - The left multi-function stalk contains the lighting functions, high beams, turn sig-
nals, park lamps, fog lamps, interior lights and panel dimmer. It is a MUX type switch and is connected to the
SCM using an 11-way connector. All outputs form the left multi-function switch are bused from the SCM. The
left multi-function switch can be serviced separately. It attaches to the SCM using a combination of locking
tabs and two screws.
• Right Multi-Function Switch - The right multi-function stalk contains the front and rear wiper and washer
functions. It is a MUX-type switch and is connected to the SCM using a 9-way connector. All outputs from the
right multi-function switch are bused from the SCM except the Rear Wiper On signal and the Rear Wiper Delay
signal. These are controlled by high side drivers in the SCM based on MUX inputs. They are direct inputs to
the rear wiper motor. The right multi-function switch can be serviced separately. It attaches to the SCM using
a combination of locking tabs and two screws.
• Steering wheel mounted switches - Steering wheel mounted remote radio controls use MUX type switches.
A MUX signal and a return circuit connect to the SCM at the 2-way connector. The SCM receives the switch
input and sends a bussed message over CAN B Bus.
• Steering Angle Hall Effect Sensor (if equipped with Electronic Stability Program (ESP) - The SCM con-
tains an additional Hall Effect sensor which is driven off the steering shaft. A 51-tooth gear attached to the data
wheel drives an 18-tooth gear containing magnets. (.35 to 1 ratio) These magnets change the magnetic field
surrounding the Hall sensors as the steering wheel is rotated. Determining if the clockspring is centered is
19 - 50 COLUMN - SERVICE INFORMATION WK
possible by observing the scan tool. Steering wheel position is displayed as 9Angle9 with a range of up to ±
900 degrees. Since the SCM determines the position from the data of both sensors, the SCM does not have
to be initialized following a battery disconnect. Steering angle information is sent over the CAN C Bus.
• Steering Angle Sensor (if equipped with Electronic Stability Program (ESP) - Vehicles equipped with ESP
use a steering angle sensor. The sensor is internal to the SCM and cannot be serviced separately. As the
steering wheel is rotated an internal data wheel or code disc interrupts infrared light beams. Optic clusters
containing three rows of four light detectors, determine steering wheel position based on which beams are
interrupted and which are not. The SCM can also distinguish all steering wheel position from lock to lock.

NOTE: Vehicles using Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) use a second (redundant) speed control sense
circuit.

The following components can be serviced separately.


• Hazard Switch (2)
• Right Multi-Function (wiper/washer) Switch (3)
• Left Multi-Function (lighting control) Switch (1)
• Cancel Cam
• Steering Angle Sensor (if equipped with Elec-
tronic Stability Program (ESP)
• Steering Control Module (SCM) with integral
clockspring (4)

OPERATION
The Steering Control Module (SCM) is connected to a battery feed and ground. It receives battery power on Cavity
8 of the 16-way Connector from the A108 circuit. It is protected by a 10 Amp fuse in Cavity 16 of the Junction Block.
It receives ground at Cavity 5 of the 16-way Connector, which is grounded on the Z907 circuit.
WK COLUMN - SERVICE INFORMATION 19 - 51

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING


STEERING CONTROL MODULE SWITCHES
WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death, on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental
restraint system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, occupant classification sys-
tem, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect
and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge
before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the supplemental
restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.

The left multi-function switch and right multi-function switch can be diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools
and methods. However, proper testing of the multiplexed inputs to the Steering Control Module (SCM) requires the
use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

NOTE: Only the effected cavities are listed in each

DESCRIPTION

Hydraulic pressure for the power steering system is


provided by a belt driven power steering pump (4).
The pump shaft has a pressed-on drive pulley (5) that
is belt driven by the crankshaft pulley. The power
steering reservoir (1) is mounted to the pump body
(4), except if the vehicle has 5.7L or Diesel engines
then it has a remote reservoir mounted to the fan
shroud.

OPERATION

The power steering pump (4) is a constant flow rate


and displacement, vane-type pump. The pump internal
parts operate submerged in fluid. The flow control ori-
fice is part of the high pressure line fitting. The pres-
sure relief valve inside the flow control valve limits the
pump pressure. The reservoir is attached to the pump
body with three bolts (7), except if the vehicle is
equipped with a 5.7L or Diesel engine then it has a
remote reservoir mounted to the fan shroud. The
power steering pump is connected to the steering gear
by the pressure and return hoses.

NOTE: Power steering pumps have different pressure rates and are not interchangeable with other pumps.
