Power Steering Oil Pressure Switch

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
The power steering oil pressure switch is attached to the power steering high-pressure tube and detects a power steering load. When a power steering load is detected, it signals the ECM. The ECM adjusts the IACV-AAC valve to increase the idle speed and adjust for the increased load.







DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

COMPONENT INSPECTION
1. Disconnect power steering oil pressure switch harness connector then start engine.




2. Check continuity between terminals (1) and (2).




If NG, replace power steering oil pressure switch.
