The metal top of my 1992 Ranger XLT 2wd manual trans power steering pressure switch broke off. No fluid is leaking. The top part, connected to the wiring, has a metal bar inside that appears to make contact with a pin in the bottom half of the sensor. No fluid is leaking out of the bottom of the sensor. Is this safe to drive while I order a new pressure sensor? Looks like tight quarters for the installation. Bloody knuckle time, for sure. Safe to drive before I replace the switch? I feel no difference in the power steering boost at high, medium and low RPM. I noticed it only today when I had the hood up. It might have corroded away and broken off a long time ago for all I know.
