MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT 127 Power Steering System (KRT800B/C/D) Steering may become more difficult than usual for the following reasons: The steering wheel was continuously turned or held to the full turn stops with torque applied by driver. In this case the ECU works to protect the system from overheating by stopping the power assisting. Stop turning the steering wheel and wait until the system temperature drops, and the power steering recovers. Fuses in the harness may have blown. There are several reasons that the fuses may blow. Refer to the Fuse section in this chapter for details. Battery voltage has dropped. Voltage drop can happen when the engine starts; inspect the battery voltage. Cable harness or connectors may have been disconnected. See an authorized dealer for service. Wheels Rims: The rims are a drop-center, tubeless tire design. Take care not to damage the sealing surfaces of the tire or rim when removing or installing tires. Note that the rims, like automotive rims, are not symmetrical.

the following reasons:
The steering wheel was continuously turned or
held to the full turn stops with torque applied by
driver. In this case the ECU works to protect the
system from overheating by stopping the power
assisting. Stop turning the steering wheel and wait
until the system temperature drops, and the power
steering recovers.
Fuses in the harness may have blown. There are
several reasons that the fuses may blow. Refer to
the Fuse section in this chapter for details.
Battery voltage has dropped.
Voltage drop can
happen when the engine starts; inspect the battery
voltage.
Cable harness or connectors may have been dis-
connected. See an authorized dealer for service.
NOTE
If the steering becomes irregular or unusual for
any reason other than above, have an authorized
dealer check the steering and relevant compo-
nents immediately.
In some cases the power
steering’s neutral position can be affected by an
accident or bump.

The rims are a drop-center, tubeless tire design.
Take care not to damage the sealing surfaces of the
tire or rim when removing or installing tires. Note that
the rims, like automotive rims, are not symmetrical.
All wheels must be installed so that the valve stems
are on the outside of the vehicle.
Wheel Nuts:
