It's the power steering pressure sensor. When you're sitting idle and turn the steering wheel it senses the load and sends a signal to the ECU to compensate and prevent the engine stalling.
Funny how yours has three wires, mine has only got 2. Anyway if you can sit with the engine idling and your foot off the accelerator, turn the steering wheel a bit to each side. The engine idle should increase very slightly, as long as it doesn't decrease you should be fine.

Okay, thank you thats kinda what I thought it was being that it goes directly to the power steering pump.... And the engine and power steering still work fine, so I have no clue what that wire does....

Mine has all three wires fully connected.

Before I got rid of my previous car, a 1994 Tempo, I swapped radios. I liked the Tempo's radio better. That counts as a mod, doesn't it? I also kept one of my Tempo's wheels to use as a spare. I hate those stupid ?compact? spares that come with modern cars. Does this count as a mod? If so, I guess I have two mods. Replaced burned/melted blower switch and connector on 19 February 2002 with a 1P3T toggle switch from Marvac and a Molex connector from Rat Shack; I guess this now makes three mods.)
