Description

Keep the PCM informed of high-demand steering moments with the Standard Ignition Power Steering Pressure Switch, PN PSS73. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2003 Ford Windstar, monitoring hydraulic pressure in the power steering system and signaling the vehicle's computer when that pressure exceeds the normal operating range so the engine management can respond to the added load.

Quality switching components: Built with high-quality parts such as springs and diaphragms so the switching mechanism activates to alert the vehicle's computer when there is a high demand on the power steering system.
High-temperature housing: Encased in a high-temperature housing designed to withstand harsh engine conditions for long service life.
Signals the PCM: Designed for durability and performance to continually signal the PCM when the power steering system exceeds normal operating hydraulic pressure.
Service-grade construction: Robust design and high-grade materials meet the stringent demands of today's service professional.

If a failed pressure switch is the cause of an unstable idle during hard steering or a related steering-load fault code, this switch replaces the original. Always diagnose the underlying cause before replacing.
