One rubber line is leaking. It is the one that goes from the pump down under the alternator then turns into a rubber hose and then has a damn sensor in it? It is located next to the brake booster sorta/ above the rack and pinion near the tranny dip stick tube.

Why does a power steering hose have a sensor in it?
I followed it to make sure it was a power steering hose and it was.

can i replace this hose?


thanks

yes you just need to buy a new hose. Napa has them. The sensor cuts off the AC when the car is idle and you turn the wheel all the way to one side.
