Is there a Power Steering sensor on that car?

When you are turning at low speeds, the pressure required in the PS system, is quite great. This sensor lets the ECU know that the pressures in the PS system are on the rise and to kick the idle speed up a bit the handle the extra power draw from the PS Pump.

Thanks, I'm not sure if it has one, I will find out. I actually just noticed the deep turn stall though, it started stalling when coming to a stop, the rpms would drop below 500 and almost die.
