Thumbs up Power Steering Pressure Switch - DIY Video

Hi guys, here is a short video I made to show how to swap out the Power Steering Pressure Switch - Part No: #YS4Z3N824BA


Mine was leaking for a while and I ignored it, until it completely failed and dumped all the power steering fluid. So don't ignore a leak at the pressure switch!


Hope it helps

The usually leak out the plastic piece when people try to turn the switch by hand using that plastic bit rather than only the metal part with a spanner or scocket when tightening them up.

Great Video.

I thought the genuine switch part number was for a 2002-2005 LR Focus as per your video being 98AB3N824AB for the Zetec or 94BP3N824AA for an ST170 (3 door). When I look up the number you advise it does not come up in the catalogue, where did you get that number from?
