Standard Ignition Power Steering Pressure Switch P/N:PSS59
When you turn the wheel hard at low speed, the power steering pump works harder and the engine feels that load. The Standard Power Steering Pressure Switch PSS45 monitors pressure in the steering system and signals the engine control system so idle can be adjusted to suit. Standard lists it as a direct-fit OE replacement for the 2003-2006 Jeep TJ, 2003-2006 Jeep Wrangler and 2004-2005 Jeep Liberty. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
Signs this part may need replacing: The engine may stall or idle roughly when you turn the wheel at parking speeds. You may also see power steering fluid seeping at the switch or a warning light. Other faults can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause first. If a failed pressure switch is the cause, the PSS45 replaces it.
