🔌 Function

Closes an opening in the assembly, sealing it against leakage and keeping dirt and water out of what is behind it.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Hydraulic fluid weeping, a wet film or staining around the closure
• A falling fluid level in the steering system with no other leak found
• Spongy, lost or wandering feel at the wheel from air drawn in past a poorly sealed closure
• A closure that is cracked, corroded or distorted, or that will no longer pull up on its seat

🛠️ Service Notes

• Fit with a new seal or O-ring onto a clean, undamaged seat — it is the seal and not the tightness that keeps the system sealed against leaks, air and water ingress
• Tighten to the figure in the workshop manual and no further; a closure pulled up hard distorts its seat and starts a weep rather than curing one
• Keep the opening covered and the surrounding area clean while the closure is off, since a steering circuit is intolerant of dirt and of air drawn into the fluid
• After fitting, bleed the system if the manual requires it, then work the steering from lock to lock and check the closure and its seat for weeping under load
