DTC P0550 PSP SENSORPFP:49763
Component DescriptionNBS005JH
Power steering pressure (PSP) sensor (1) is installed to the power
steering high-pressure tube and detects a power steering load.
Illustration shows the view from under the vehicle.
This sensor is a potentiometer which transforms the power steering
load into output voltage, and emits the voltage signal to the ECM.
The ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator and adjusts
the throttle valve opening angle to increase the engine speed and
adjusts the idle speed for the increased load.

least 10 seconds before conducting the next test.
WITH CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT-II.
3. Start engine and let it idle for at least 5 seconds.
4. If 1st trip DTC is detected, go to EC-1183, "

Component DescriptionNBS005K9
Intake valve timing control position sensors are located in the front of
cylinder heads in both bank 1 and bank 2.
This sensor uses a Hall IC.
The cam position is determined by the intake primary cam sprocket

valve timing control for appropriate target valve open-close timing
according to drive conditions based on detected cam position.
