## 🔌 Function

Converts hydraulic pressure from the steering system into the movement that turns the drive, and holds the set angle against the load on the drive.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Steering wandering, feeling slack, or needing constant correction to hold a course
-   Hydraulic fluid weeping from the rod seal or a cylinder end
-   Steering heavy, jerky, or losing assistance
-   Rod scored, pitted or corroded where it enters the seal
-   Sponginess at the helm from air drawn into the system

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Check the drive serial number, as this cylinder covers TSK units up to serial A1013850 and later units take a different part
-   Steering is a safety system, so renew rather than patch a leaking or scored cylinder
-   Bleed the steering fully and check movement lock to lock before the boat is used
