🔌 Function

The cooler removes heat from the hydraulic power-steering fluid using the engine raw-water circuit. It helps preserve fluid viscosity, pump life and consistent steering assistance.

Common signs of failure:

• Heavy or inconsistent steering after prolonged operation

• Power-steering pump noise or fluid foaming

• Overheated, darkened or burnt-smelling steering fluid

• Water-contaminated or milky hydraulic fluid

• External leakage, corrosion or failed pressure test

📦 Condition
