NOTE: This test should be done with original equipment tires
and wheels at the correct tire pressure.
- Start the engine, and let it idle.
- Attach a commercially available spring scale (A) to the
steering wheel. With the engine idling and the vehicle on a
clean, dry floor, pull the scale as shown, and read it as
soon as the tires begin to turn.

- If the scale reads no more than the specification, the power
assist is OK. If it reads more, check these items:
