DEALER WARNINGS1. The back-up system should not be used to take the place of the fac-

tory power steering system.2. Route all hoses to prevent rupture or chafing of back-up and factory

lines and keep away from hot exhaust & manifold components.3. Only trained and certified technicians can install Drive-Master back-

up systems, otherwise the warranty will be void.4. Do not mount back-up steering pump unit with the reservoir ports

facing down towards the ground.5. Flow sensor fittings and wires were specially checked for security

prior to leaving our factory. Take care when installing not to loosenor break wires. To do so will DAMAGE FLOW SENSOR ANDINVALIDATE WARRANTY. Refer to troubleshooting guide for testprocedures

6. Do not make any electrical connections that are different than theDrive-Master wiring instructions.

7. Disassembling components without prior Drive-Master notificationand a valid Return Authorization (RA) in writing by a Drive-Masteroffice liaison will void warranty, and a charge will be issued for anyreplacement parts. DO NOT CUT HARNESS’ WHEN REMOVINGELECTRICAL WIRING FOR RETURN-THIS WILL VOID WAR-RANTY!

8. 2001 through 2005 Daimler/Chrysler minivan products-Check theOEM return line from the cooler to the OEM fill reservoir to see ifthere is a metal restrictor in the line. This can be seen from underhood, right side of motor from reservoir. If there, remove and discardthe line. Replace with the yellow push-lok hose supplied. FAIL-URE TO DO THIS WILL RESULT IN HOSE FAILURE ATTHE COOLER END AND VOID THE WARRANTY!

Back-Up Steering System Operationfor the owner/user

The Drive-Master Back-Up Steering system is designed to provide emergency powersteering in the event of engine stall or OEM power steering failure. You have a Back-UpSteering System because your OEM steering is modified to low or no effort. The Drive-Master back-up steering pump will automatically activate when the OEM power steeringflow is disrupted. Audible and visual alarms alert the driver of the activation of the back-up steering system. (WARNING: THE ALARM BUZZER WILL STAY ACTIVE AS AREMINDER TO THE DRIVER TO GET OFF THE ROAD AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.STOP AND TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND SUMMON HELP.)

The Drive-Master Back-Up system will become operational after the vehicle is running.This exclusive feature is accomplished by the Drive-Master back-up module (or relay inthe toggle switch equipped model). Excessive current draw from the battery is eliminat-ed until the engine is started. The back-up system’s operation can be tested two ways:

1. Start the engine. Turn the steering wheel left or right fully to end stops. The sys-tem will engage when the wheel hits the stop. The warning buzzer will sound (ifequipped with buzzer), and the LED will light, alerting the driver of the back-upsystem’s operation.

2. The test/emergency switch can be manually operated from the Drive-Master back-up steering control module (or toggle switch) which overrides the system and acti-vates the back-up steering immediately. Push the button or operate the toggleswitch to the on position - the pump will run. Push the button again or toggle theswitch to off & the pump will turn off.

The flow rate of the back-up steering pump is 3.5 gallons per minute. The system is V.A.tested and accepted. It will operate beyond the 180 second specification required for V.A.clients. The back-up system has its own one quart reservoir, and operates on the vehi-cle’s 12 volt battery.

Maintenance: Maintain normal fluid level in the OEM power steering reservoir. Thisshould be checked when engine oil and filter are changed, every 3000 to 5000 miles.

Leaks: Any dripping or leak detection under vehicle – return to your mobility equip-ment dealer for repairs immediately.

Steering: If steering becomes hard to steer or noisy - return to your mobility equipmentdealer for repairs immediately.

Annually, or every 30,000 miles - Return to your mobility equipment dealer for completesystem check and replacement of the OEM Power Steering fluid in the system.

Continuous Operation: if the BUS motor runs continuously, turn vehicle off immedi-ately and call your dealer for service.

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

CAUTION: Mopar® Power Steering Fluid +4 or Mopar® ATF+4 Automatic Transmission Fluid is to be used inthe power steering system. Both fluids have the same material standard specifications (MS-9602).No other power steering or automatic transmission fluid is to be used in the system. Damage mayresult to the power steering pump and system if another fluid is used. Do not overfill the system.

CAUTION: If the air is not purged from the power steering system correctly, pump failure could result.

NOTE: Be sure the vacuum tool used in the followingprocedure is clean and free of any fluids.

1. Check the fluid level. As measured on the side of the

reservoir, the level should indicate between MAX and

MIN when the fluid is at normal ambient temperature.

Adjust the fluid level as necessary. (Refer to 19 -

Steering/Pump/FLUID - Standard (Procedure).

2. Tightly insert Power Steering Cap Adapter (4), Special

Tool 9688, into the mouth of the reservoir (3).

CAUTION: Failure to use a vacuum pump reservoir (1) may allow power steering fluid to be sucked into the hand

vacuum pump.

3. Attach Hand Vacuum Pump (2), Special Tool C-4207 or equivalent, with reservoir (1) attached, to the Power Steering Cap

Adapter (4). Call 973-495-6182 Mactools. Ask for Kevin O’Malley. He has offered us special pricing for the tool and reservoir

adapter M4000 Pump and MIL9688 Adapter

CAUTION: Do not run the engine while vacuum is applied to the power steering system.Damage to the power steering pump can occur.

NOTE: When performing the following step make sure the vacuum level is maintained during the entire time period.

4. Using Hand Vacuum Pump (2), apply 68-85 kPa (20-25 in. Hg) of vacuum to the system for a minimum of three minutes.

5. Slowly release the vacuum and remove the special tools.

6. Adjust the fluid level as necessary. Refer to Step #1.

7. Repeat Step #1 through Step #6 until the fluid no longer drops when vacuum is applied.

8. Start the engine and cycle the steering wheel lock-to-lock three times.

NOTE: Do not hold the steering wheel at the stops.

23

38. After filling, bleeding, and running the system, BEFOREre-assembling the OEM vehicle body parts, run the vehicle toOEM operating temperature. Operate the Back-up steering sys-tem six to twelve times. Check the OEM reservoir for properfluid level. Re-check all of your hydraulic connections for clean,dry, fittings with no leaks.

Drive-Master Back-Up Steering SystemTroubleshooting Guide

Do the diagnostics before you call 973-808-9709 anddouble check your wire connections. Mon. - Fri.8:00 AM - 4:30 PM EST.

IF BACK-UP PUMP DOES NOT COME ON LOCK-TO-LOCK:Check green wire connected to the battery side of thesolenoid (positive power) with key off.Check orange wire positive power with ignition on.With ignition off, cut ungrounded wire at the flowsensor. Check continuity through flow sensor. Nocontinuity means a bad flow sensor.

IF CONTROL MODULE DOES NOT TURN BACK-UP SYSTEM ON:With ignition on, ground out the red wire from thegray harness. The back-up pump should activate. Ifno activation, check pin connectors in the controlmodule plug. If pin connectors are correct the con-trol module is bad.
