What are the symptoms of a faulty power steering pump sensor?

[VanKinsley]

A faulty power steering pump sensor may manifest as heavier steering wheel feel, excessive pressure, damage to the hydraulic pump, or damage to sealing components. If the sensor fails, it needs to be replaced immediately. Below is additional information: 1. A sensor is a detection device that can sense the measured information and convert it into electrical signals or other required forms of output according to certain rules, meeting the requirements for information transmission, processing, storage, display, recording, and control. 2. The characteristics of sensors include: miniaturization, digitization, intelligence, multifunctionality, systematization, and networking. They are the primary link in achieving automatic detection and control. The existence and development of sensors give objects senses like touch, taste, and smell, gradually bringing them to life. Typically, sensors are classified into ten major categories based on their basic sensing functions: thermal sensors, photosensitive sensors, gas sensors, force sensors, magnetic sensors, humidity sensors, sound sensors, radiation sensors, color sensors, and taste sensors.
