Help with codes???

can anyone tell me what to do for the following codes on my '89?

code 52- Power Steering Pressure Switch Always Open or Closed. and
code 67- Neutral Pressure Switch Open.

i believe the neutral switch was broken several years ago and i can fix that, but what and where is this power steering pressure switch?

Thanks

When did you get that code? If it was a KOER code, and you didn't turn the steering wheel during the KOER test, that's why you got it. It happens all the time.

both of these codes are KOEO. i could not get any codes at all on KOER. i followed the hokey-pokey for KOER several times and the tester never responded(and the book that came with the tester says that you must repair KOEO codes before going to KOER). is the PSPS located in the steering column? the steering column in this truck has been taken apart several times over the years, and nothing on it has worked correctly in the last 10 or 11 years.

The PSPS is on the high pressure line right before the steering gear box. The computer will not go into the KOER test if you have the code 67. Get that fixed, and it should go right into KOER just fine. I had this code in my truck after my mass air swap, and ended up jumping the pin from the computer to the SIG RTN wire in the self test connector. Is the truck auto or manual?

I'd think you could get the psps pretty much anywhere. Try jumping the NDS pin on the computer (I forget which pin number it is) with the SIGRTN wire, pin 46. It could be that the clutch switch is bad, or there is a problem with the wiring. Before going too deep into that, try running the test with the clutch pedal pressed down. If it is a 6 cylinder, I think the test requires that this be done.

That is correct.The book says that the clutch must be held in during the entire test.
