    Good morning, thanks for your information, can you say if an electronic power steering system can also have a similar problem. It has no fluid to leak but the steering sometimes get stiff when the car is about to turn when i start to drive, after accelerating , it becomes normal

    My explorer wants to stall sometimes when I make sharp turns. idk if this is a gasoline issue or power steering. My guess is both. my power steering leaks to just below the fulk line and makes leaving the driveway or parking lot spot difficult, along with a noisy grind. But have no issue with vibration or wandering once in motion or when its replenished (though that needs done approx once a week) Im just trying to pinpoint what part(s) need replaced. Obviously, at its age, itd be worthwhile to replace most of related parts whike we're (he) is at it. But no budget for more than bare minium. (Not driving an '98 for its looks - or awesome gas mileage😏) Thanks for this imput! Very helpful!

    Can a faulty powersteering sensor cause rich condition? How to check? Ford Focus 1.6 16v ti-vct, 115 PS. 2 catalytic converters, one for cilinders 1 and 3, one for 2 and 4. I have -12 to -17 LTFT that varies on idle. LTFT changes to a stable -6 when accelerating. 2 banks, both acting similar, but not in unison. MAF sensor seems to do its job, shows reasonable values for engine displacement. I've cleaned it aniway, but no changes. Pre-cat (upstream) O2 sensors seem fine aswell, they have a continuous variation between 0.1 and 0.7-0.8V, they don't get to 0.9V. I also have a check engine light but that refers only to the post-cat (downstream) O2 sensors (P 0036, 0136, 0056, 0156). They both are malfunctioning, both have defective heaters (proven), but they both read O2. They stay pretty steady at 0.7V when engine is warm and at 0.4 when engine is cold. I hope next week I'll change them. Can they influence fuel air mixture? Didn't make an emissions test. Thanks!

    And why is pressure building up when I took the lid off where I put my fluid into my power steering. There is a bit of a rattling grinding noise things to be coming from the power steering pulley when I put a bit of oil behind it it shuts up do I need to replace our is it possibly just dry. I've just bought it I have That sinking feeling

    Very informative video. My power steering fluid is leaking out. Does that mean the power sensor switch is bad or does the pump need to be replaced?

    First, check the high pressure hose as it tends to leak often. Next, check for power steering leaks at the rack and pinion boot. Next, check for leaks at connection right at the power steering. If it leaks then O-ring is worn.

    What does it mean if it’s all working but at idle it’s harder and if I rev the engine or at high rpm it’s a LOT easier too turn? Is the pump just not working 100%..?

    I have a Ford Crown Victoria 2005 and I've had to change my power steering sensor twice in five years. So what I've done is took the one that broke the second time and corked the hole with a screw and disconnected the two wire harness. 2 months later my car runs just fine no leaks and no stalling. I fixed the problem free of charge and it's running fine. I'd like an answer to tell me why that's a bad idea. Better than the massive leak I had, no more leaks. I remove the sensor and install a screw into the hole so it does not leak no more and runs just fine

    @@davidgreid007 sounds like my kinda fix. shit. you see a leak you know all you gotta do is tighten the screw some, or size it up a notch. the simplest fixes are the most durable, and free. An 05 vic was when a car was still a car too.
