Ok... so I just followed the PS test procedure and my A/C did not cut out when I turned the steering all the way to the left; and with A/C off, turning steering all the way left did not increase the idle.
Looks like the PS switch is a good suspect but I just spent 20 min underneath the VX and couldn't see any wires coming out of the PS module... where the hell is it? no one has pics on this forum... seriously?
