Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Test
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 31 other vehicles, including the 2006 Mercury Mountaineer, 2006 Mercury Monterey, 2006 Mercury Montego, 2006 Mercury Milan, and 2006 Mercury Mariner. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The PSP test checks the ability of the EEC system to detect a change in the power steering system fluid pressure. The steering wheel is briefly turned at least 1/4 of a revolution on vehicles equipped with a PSP switch or sensor. This is done during a KOER on-demand self-test.
