Detailed Product Information

Standard Ignition PSS6 is a power steering pressure switch used to monitor steering system pressure and send the proper signal to the vehicle’s control system. This switch is a screw-in style unit with a female round connector, male blade terminal, and M14 x 1.50 thread, making it a direct-fit service part for many Toyota and Lexus platforms. It is a practical replacement for vehicles such as the Toyota Camry, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Tacoma, Lexus ES350, and Lexus RX330 when the original switch has failed or is no longer responding correctly. This part cross-references 94857300 and PS200 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Power steering warning light stays on
• Erratic idle speed when steering load changes
• Incorrect steering pressure signal to the engine control system
• Hard steering-related drivability complaints tied to a failed switch
• Electrical connection issues at the original pressure switch

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify thread size, connector style, and engine-bay mounting location before installation. Because this is a screw-in switch, inspect the sealing surface and connector condition during replacement. Confirm vehicle application by year, make, and model, especially on Toyota Camry, Toyota Sienna, and Lexus ES300 platforms where multiple steering-related service parts may be used.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition replacement parts are built for service use and application-specific fitment. PSS6 is listed as a complete assembly and is intended for direct replacement on confirmed applications.
