2006 LLY puddle question

[sledge]

Did you find this article?

Not sure if it will help, but it seems chock full of info.

Low miles, cold weather, irregular use...probably leaky seal allowing accumulator to bleed out.

Raised my understanding on the subject considerably. Thank you. :cheers2:

I checked out the res, it was down slightly. (It leaked again.)

So, does the sticking valve in the pump force the ps fluid out the cap of the res?

That is what happened with mine. Mine happened in October when I was in Key West. Came home and not only did I have a river of fluid on my floor to the floor drain, but it stuck with power too it for long enough, it killed both batteries!! Truck had to be put on a flatbed and taken to the dealer...I was a bit pissed!!!! lol Basically, the pump keeps the system pressurized and by not applying the brakes or steering pressure keeps building...

I watched it, and found some more ps fluid on the ground. But, the cap and the area below and around the cap are all dry. I wonder if I have a different breach in the ps system? I also left it sit all week without starting it, and I had lost no volts.
