SPSS or Speed Sensitive Power Steering warning light.

El sistema SPSS funciona limitando la direcci?n asistida a velocidades altas (se utiliza un orificio variable o en direcci?n de cremallera). A mayor velocidad se obtiene la sensaci?n de direcci?n m?s r?gida y m?s ligera en situaciones de estacionamiento. Utiliza el sensor de la velocidad del veh?culo (en el eje transversal) para determinar si, y cu?nto, para limitar el flujo de l?quido de direcci?n asistida en el bastidor.

Una falla en el sensor de velocidad del veh?culo, una falla en el cableado (para el sensor de velocidad del veh?culo o al solenoide del SPSS), un sello soplado de la cremallera de direcci?n o una p?rdida de vac?o puede causar que la luz permanecer? encendida.

Posiblemente el VSS y componentes SPSS, debe estar cubiertos por la garant?a del tren motriz.

Buena suerte (recuerde calificar esta ayuda. Gracias por ufsar Fixya.

When my SSPS came on (same kind of thing...it'd come on and stay on for a while, then not come on at next startup) I took it in to replace my power steering fluid. Hasn't come on since.
