Component Inspection




COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
The power steering oil pressure switch is attached to the power steering high-pressure tube and detects a power steering load. When a power steering load is detected, it signals the ECM. The ECM adjusts the IACV-AAC valve to increase the idle speed and adjust for the increased load.

Specification data are reference values.




ECM TERMINALS AND REFERENCE VALUE
