The steering wheel has been jerking especially on curves. One place has replaced the pitman arm a couple of times. It is still doing it. Another place unhooked a switch on the column, something like a steering sensor? Anyone heard of this and what is the official name? It seems to have quite, now i want to price and find the item somewhere. Thanks for any help!

No I didn't, but the shop who replaced the pitman arm was supposed to check the whole front end out. It has quite doing it since the second shop unplugged this so called sensor, so ...

Yes, but I think that this sensor should be plugged in. You dont want to drive a car around without parts and sensors hooked up. You should have it looked at by someone else
