POWER STEERING PRESSURE (PSP) SWITCH INSPECTION [L3 Turbo]

Note

• Perform the following inspection only when directed.

Continuity Inspection

1. Inspect the following if the power steering is inoperative (See POWER STEERING FLUID INSPECTION.):

• Power steering fluid level

• Power steering fluid leakage

• Power steering fluid pressure

2. Disconnect the PSP switch connector.

3. Start the engine.

4. Inspect for continuity between the PSP switch terminal and ground using a tester.

• If not as specified, replace the PSP switch. (See POWER STEERING OIL PUMP REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L8, LF, L3, L3 Turbo].)

• If the PSP switch is normal, but PID value is out of specification, perform the "Circuit Open/Short Inspection".
