I just bought a 93 LS 400 that was garaged for over a year proir to me buying it. Now the problem is its making a whinning noise when i move the steering wheel which i think is the power steering pump ???? i have heard theres a defect with something to do with the sensor. this is my first lexus so i am not familiar with them. I have quoted this part at 175.00 so if anyone knows af a junkyard where i may be able to find some misc parts for this pls let me know has to be within 50 miles maybe more of new york. Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated, thanks

yes it is indeed your power steering system most likely, either your idle up valve, the pump itself or a leaky pipe. Worse case it might be rack on pinion. If you dont know what your looking at get a mechanic, although if you're mechanically inclined at all it isnt so bad, in fact i changed the pump and valve myself ( albeit i deleted the valve )
oh and search function is your friend
