POWER STEERING PRESSURE
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
A pressure sensing switch is used in the power
steering system. It is mounted on the high-pressure
steering hose. This switch will be used with both
2.4L and 3.7L engines.
OPERATION
The switch is used on both the 2.4L 4±cylinder and
3.7L V-6 engines.
The power steering pressure switch provides an
input to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). This
input is provided during periods of high steering
pump load and low engine rpm; such as during park-
ing maneuvers. The PCM increases the idle speed
through the Idle Air Control (IAC) motor. This is
done to prevent the engine from stalling under the
increased load.
When steering pump pressure exceeds 3275 kPa  
690 kPa (475 psi   100 psi), the Normally Closed
(NC) switch will open and the PCM will increase the
engine idle speed. This will prevent the engine from
stalling.
When pump pressure drops to approximately 1379
kPa (200 psi), the switch circuit will re-close and
engine idle speed will return to its previous setting.
REMOVAL
The power steering pressure switch is installed in
the power steering high-pressure hose (Fig. 9).
(1) Remove the high pressure power steering
hose(Refer to 19 - STEERING/PUMP/HOSES -
REMOVAL).
(2) Disconnect electrical connector from power
steering pressure switch.
(3) Place a small container or shop towel beneath
switch to collect any excess fluid.
(4) Remove switch. Use back-up wrench on power
steering line to prevent line bending.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install power steering switch into power steer-
ing line. (Fig. 9)
(2) Tighten to 9.6 N´m (85 in. lbs.) torque.
