2003-2007 Honda Accord Power steering pump and pressure hose replacement part 2

step by step how to replace power steering pump and high pressure hose.
how to bleed power steering fluid.

[@gabesimon2356]

I just changed my steering line through your video I’ve never tried before but you made it seem simple,Big thank you

[@arielban1]

Hello, special thanks for doing this video. This was very helpful. I would like to add my experience. Jack up your car and loosen all the bolts before removing them. You can remove the shield under the car which is a must. Very helpful to have the 19mm long wrench to loosen the nut connected to power steering housing, not the pump housing. I bought my high pressure hose from Autozone. RockAuto does not carry it. Take your time getting old hose out. Its a bit tricky, but it will come out with the correct angle. The new hose comes with two orings. Do NOT forget to put them on. Once you get the new hose in place, you may have to wiggle or even bend the hose to go back into the steering housing. Mine was a bit long but managed to get it connected. Be super careful that the nut goes in straight into the housing. Stripping the nut or housing will just give you the biggest head ache. My biggest headache was getting the 10mm middle nut securing the hose to the mid section of the frame. I had to insert a screw driver to get the holes to line up. If I am correct the new hose nut going into the power steering housing was 17mm, while the old one was 19mm. Be aware it is not same size. Take your time, take photos, write things down. Its not easy but can be done with patience and a bit of mechanic skill. Note, have a catch pan and rags ready. I laid a large plastic cover on the ground with catch pan for the power steering fluid drippings. It gets everywhere. You will need about 1/2 canister of fluid to fill the hose. I purchased Autozone Honda fluid. Keep an eye on your fluid levels for awhile.. make sure no drips. Best of luck to you.

Just as helpful as the video , thank you 🙏🏼

[@ryoung375]

I bought the hose from autozone same as the one in video. However, I have trouble to put it back into the steering housing. Any trick to do that? I tried several hours and no luck, very frustrated. Thanks.

[@arielban1]

@@ryoung375 did you get it installed? Are you having hard time lining it up to install the tubing to the housing? You may need another pair of hands to get it aligned. Take you time installing the nut. Don’t cross tread it. Just install the nut loosely then adjust the tubing to the rest of the car. Tighten nut last. I had the same trouble lining it up.

I unbolted the motor mount to get the line out

This and part one just saved me $1000+ from the Honda dealership 🙌🏾

Thank you so much for your video My daughter have the same problem with her vehicle far away from me and I needed to go and replace the line you gave me the idea on what tools I needed for the job Again thank you !

[@mrcrunhunt]

One thing I did use. I had to get some penetrating oil to loosen up that bolt because it was a pain in the ass to move without it. Thanks for the video

[@mastermindt08horn28]

Thanks for sharing! Had a time feeding the line back through but I was able to get it done! You’re a lifesaver!

[@Trader_Dave]

I just did this job following this video. Get the OEM hose. This is an easy job and does not require messing with the motor mount like some of the other commenters said. There is also zero mess if you use a fluid extractor to suction the fluid before removing the hose.

[@tufosb]

Thanks man, mine was also leaking and i saw your video and did the work by myself.

[@EnriqueReyesJrREALTOR]

Thank you for the straight forward instructions.

[@dixiederivatives]

Not neccesary to remove heat shield. Feed the end of hi pressure hose by pushing it thru from the power steering box side. Then go around and pull it the rest of the way through.

[@ssjrose9641]

Not necessary to remove it, especially if you get that hose he got from autozone. That one fits a little easier in my opinion.

[@BennyB00per]

Gonna work on this today! Thanks for the detailed video!! :D saved me a ton of money!

Great video. I'm about to my too. Thought the line was under motor mounts 🥰💪

[@Esuper1]

Nicely done. I am about to do mine. Thanks man. Edit: That screw that goes on the actual housing at the bottom is a bear. I could not get the thread started and checked angles with the old and it matches and just for giggles I tried putting on the old one or getting started and it wont start threading. Have option two ready because it might happen to you.

Good vid only comment I would make you should be using tubing wrenches on those fittings so you don't round off the fitting end.

[@Burrito43754]

My hose is leaking. So i think a hose replacement is needed such as you done. But does the belt reaally need to be removed?

[@duquesautomotive6161]

If you are only doing the line you do not need to take the belt off.

You can do power steering hose without lifting the car. I was able to just take out 2 of the bolts closest to the passenger side of the heat shield and left the third. Getting the lines out and in were no problem then.

[@curiosityredpill7030]

Make a video

[@matthewmaksimowicz3811]

It’s not really worth making a video, you could probably take the whole heat shield off from above if you worked at it. 2 bolts was all that was needed to get the hoses out and back in and leaving the far one maintains alignment of the shield putting it back on.

I’ve been stuck trying to put the new hose in for a while. Any better tricks for this

[@redpilllense7125]

Bro, I just installed my power steering pressure hose using your instructions. It all went exactly how you explained it but I do have one issue. I really struggled at the rack and pinion end. I couldn't quite get the connection fully in and snug as it previously was. I considered bending the line a bit to get the right angle but wasn't sure if this would break or damage the line. Anyhow, somehow I did get an angle to screw the line in but it won't fully connect. I didn't force it in, fearing of damaging the threads. I have about an eight to have fully connected. I found it pretty resistant to keep on threading it in. It was going in pretty smooth until it just wouldn't. I'm new at this and just trying to learn and understand. I really appreciate you for posting this video. Any advice or input?

[@duquesautomotive6161]

Hello, when you are installing the line you can push the line in with the fitting still not connected to the threads. Then you will be able to choose the angle the line is going to face, then you can tighten down the fitting. Shake the line as you tighten the fitting so it will be centered. I hope this help.

[@rubinnunez124]

I had the same issue with the part of the line that threads into the rack and pinion. It's just not threading in all the way. It started threading smooth by hand and then it stopped, and I feel resistance to it.

[@spliffer420]

What causes the bubbles??

[@dionnedyson7069]

Question: For a Honda 2005, would replacing the power steering pump and high pressure hose cause issues with the motor mount? A mechanic is telling me he doesn't know what happened to my motor mounts after I had repairs there. My motor was fine before I had those repairs done. Thank you.

[@mokuk9919]

Anyway to do this without going under the car to remove the heat shield? :( My back wont allow me. It really does not allow me to do it from above but I'll do a little bit at a time

If you’re talking about the connector, you need to depress the tab on the it. If you’re talking about removing the sensor from the line you will need to use a wrench and unscrew it. I hope this helps.

Do you know if the high pressure hose is unrestricted both ways?.I think mines is clogged with paper towel I plugged the line with paper towel and forgot to take it off. I blew compressed air thru it and some fluid came out the bottom end at first but it doesn't seem to let air go thru now.

Hello, Yes the hose should not have any restrictions in either direction. Hopefully the paper towel didn’t go into the rack or pump.

Hello Al, To get the air out of the system simply get the front wheels of the ground and cycle it form left to right about 20 times slowly with the engine off. Make sure there is fluid reservoir. If it persist check to see if the pump was a remanufactured. I’ve had issues with pumps that was defective it had a leak.. but not visible because when the pump was running it would suck in air.
