Fig. 4 Power Steering Load Switch

PURPOSE

Closes, to inform the ECM when power steering load is high.

LOCATION

Mounted in the power steering high-pressure line.

OPERATION

It signals the ECM when the pressure increases (indicating extra engine load). The ECM can then compensate for the load by sending a signal to
the Idle Air Control-Auxiliary Air Control (IACV-ACC) Valve.
