Power Steering Pressure Switch

Power Steering Pressure (PSP) switch closes in response to an increase in power steering fluid pressure (load condition). With the switch closed, a monitored voltage circuit supplied by the ECM is pulled low to vehicle ground through switch. The ECM then sends a signal to the Intake Air Control (IAC) valve to adjust idle speed to compensate for increased engine load. PSP switch is located on power steering pump.
