Power Steering Fluid: Service and Repair

POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL CHECKING

WARNING: The fluid level should be checked with engine off to prevent injury from moving components.

CAUTION: MOPAR(R) ATF+4 is to be used in the power steering system. No other power steering or automatic transmission fluid is to be used in the system. Damage may result to the power steering pump and system if any other fluid is used, and do not overfill.

NOTE: Power steering reservoir does not contain a dipstick. Fluid level indicators are molded into the side of the reservoir WITH REMOTE RESERVOIR.

The power steering fluid level can be viewed on the dipstick attached to the filler cap. Before opening power steering system, wipe the reservoir filler cap free of dirt and debris. Remove the cap and check the fluid level on its dipstick. When the fluid is at normal ambient temperature, approximately 21°C to 27°C (70°F to 80°F), the fluid level should read between the minimum and maximum on dipstick (GAS) or Reservoir (DIESEL). Only add fluid when the vehicle is cold.

Use only Mopar(R) ATF+4 . Do not overfill the power steering system.
