Standard Ignition Power Steering Pressure Switch P/N:PSS69
Keep your engine's idle steady under steering load with the Standard Ignition Power Steering Pressure Switch PSS57. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2012 Kia Sportage. Mounted in the power steering system, this switch senses hydraulic pressure and signals the engine control module so it can adjust idle when steering effort rises — for example during low-speed and parking maneuvers when the pump load increases.
Signs the original switch may need replacing include an unstable or dropping idle when you turn the wheel, or a stored steering-related trouble code. If a failed power steering pressure switch is the cause, this unit replaces it; diagnose the condition first, as other components can produce similar symptoms.
