Now my powersteering is brand new and my car is having a problem turning unless i give it gas at idle its hard to turn the wheel. So i seen this powersteering switch i bought it. My buddy is putting it on, on sunday with all my suspension he said he would throw it on here is a pic of it.

Anyone know anything about these what they do i just thought i would try it? I remember being told before that we dont have them in our cars?

Now as I recall, we dont get any actual idle compensation for the PS.

Your issue is not totally uncommon. The general idea is to not turn the wheels unless there's no mew sub S (be rolling a little bit before you turn the wheels). Once you get used to doing it, it becomes second nature. Many cars are balky with the wheels stopped (the PS pump is turning slow and static friction is greater that kinetic. Double whammy).

Good luck.
