Can anyone tell me how to remove the pressure sensor that has the connector on it off of the rack and pinion. I cannot find anywhere online that tells you how to remove it. There is a little nut between the sensor and the rack and pinion and I don’t know if it’s supposed to come off with it or what because I can’t even find a picture of this exact sensor online anywhere I’ve even spoke to the Nissan dealership here in town and they said that they rack and pinion‘s come with those sensors already on there so they don’t even know how you could buy one separate. Or if anyone can tell me the part number for that sensor or maybe a diagram of it so that I can see if the number actually comes off with it.PLEASE HELP!!

 

Well, you caught me in a curious mood so I looked this up in Alldata which says the SPSS valve and harness is part of the "steering gear assy" and not a serviceable part.

 

Oh wow!!! Why I’m the world would they sell them with it !?!? That’s so crazy . Thanks for the info

 

That nut you looking at is how you remove the solenoid.. It takes a special wrench I get mine loose with a center punch and hammer.. Get on one of the corner of the hex hitting so it turns to the left..

 

That info is also from alldata..
