Where does power steering fluid go in 1999 Mazda protege?

1. Locate the power steering fluid reservoir. In a 1999 Mazda Protege, it's usually a clear or translucent plastic container with a black cap, located on the driver's side of the engine bay, near the firewall.

2. Check the power steering fluid level. The fluid level should be between the "FULL" and "ADD" marks on the reservoir. If the level is low, you'll need to add more fluid.

3. Purchase the correct power steering fluid. Your Mazda Protege requires Dexron III automatic transmission fluid (ATF).

4. Add power steering fluid to the reservoir. Use a funnel to add the fluid slowly, being careful not to overfill the reservoir.

5. Check the power steering fluid level again and adjust it if necessary.

6. Replace the reservoir cap securely.
