Hi:
I took the fluid reservoir out to fix a leak in both hoses at the clamp, then filled the reservoir with new fluid and cycle the steering rack a couple of times as indicated in the TIS manual. Still do not have any assist. How long or how many cycles from stop to stop should I made to have the hydraulic circuit properly bled?

Thanks

Alex

Cycled the rack a couple more times and works now. It seemed air in the system. The leak is gone too.
