power steering pump, what is the wire at the back?, and is it needed?
as above, on the power steering pump, there is a wire at the back, is this some sort of sensor? is this needed, as the replacement pump i got has not got this.
I have a apexi ecu if it makes any difference?
thanks

a total guess, is it possibly a sensor used to raise engine revs slightly when the steering is used and the engine is at idle speed (ie reacts to the load).
Proably not but all I can think of

I wouldn't bother about a diagram for it DaOne, unfeesiblylarjdoodahs got it right. In practice you'd be hard pushed to tell the difference with the sensor connected or unconnected. Running a pump without the sensor wire attached will give you no issues, std ecu or Apexi.
