Hydro-Boost Bleeding: Notes

NOTE: If power steering fluid has foamed, due to low fluid level, it will be necessary to park vehicle for approximately 1 hour (reservoir cap loose) so that foam can dissipate.

Check power steering pump reservoir and fill with power steering fluid (MOPAR Power Steering Fluid). Allow fluid to remain undisturbed for 2 minutes. Leave reservoir cap off during operation.
Start engine and run for 10 seconds. Check fluid level and add fluid, if necessary. Repeat procedure until fluid level remains constant. Raise front of vehicle and allow tires to clear floor.
Start engine and run at 1500 RPM. Apply and release brakes several times, at the same time turn wheels back and forth, lock-to-lock. Stop engine and check fluid level. Add fluid, if necessary. Lower vehicle.
