Has your steering system been worked on in the last few months? The PSP switch is the power steering pressure switch and is located on the fitting at the end of the high pressure hose where it is attached to the rack, at the steering gear. Check to make sure that the switch's connector is attached. If it is, you may have to replace it.

Probably not. The PS switch is only tested during the KOER test. That's the point in the test where you're supposed to a gazillion things in 10 seconds, one of them is to turn the steering wheel to one of the stops.

sunny San Juan Bautista,
I find it's easiest to just use the clock time on the SHO for a reference. Just set the clock to timer mode, start the test and hit the clock reset. Once the CE light cues you for the goose test, look at the timer, press the brake, turn the wheel hard left then hard right and floor the throttle until the revs get up really high. When you have the timer to look at those 10 seconds become a lot more generous.
