My 2001 std cab ,2 wd, 6 cyl.is leaking pwr steering fluid ,still.
I replaced the pwr steering pump, and both hoses. Its apparently leaking out the steering mech. (Does any one know) Where can I look. Are there any seals that can be replaced.? Or should I start looking for a replacement steer geer assembly :/

 

Look at the bellows on the rack. Do you see signs of fluid?

How's the power steering pressure switch?

You should see some signs of a leak.

 

That was my leak took a bit of sluthing to get the answer.

power steering pressure switch was the leak It had gone bad it wasnt louse it just started leaking so it had to be replaced.

 

i was about to say check that... mine did the same and was constantly leaking and it was the power steering sensor...

 

there should be a power steering sensor up top check it out i beleave it is the pressure line sensor. cause i had a leak to i changed the hose and it was still leaking then i checked the sensor and pulled it out and noticed the sensor had a minor crack in the fitting and was still leaking so i changed it and no more leak.

 

thanks I'll check sensor. NO sensor lite on board, so maybe its defective as mentioned.

 

it would just throw the check engine light... but it'll come and go

 

My truck had no problem codes poping up it just leaked

 

Mine too, it just leaked, no codes.

 

Thanks guys for replies
