My SSPS light is going on and off. I have a 04 Suzuki Forenza.

I noticed the light came on and stayed on for the duration of the ride. I parked and got started the next morning and the light remained off. Any suggestions. The handbook suggest taking it back to the dealer. Also, my radio just went out however the alarm is still working. Help as well.

When my SSPS came on (same kind of thing...it'd come on and stay on for a while, then not come on at next startup) I took it in to replace my power steering fluid. Hasn't come on since.

I have anexclamation point on my dashboard. its a 2007 suzuki forenza. what does it mean

on a Suzuki , Your vehicle is equipped with Speed Sensitive Power Steering (SSPS).
This is a computer-controlled power steering assist system.
The warning light you are describing will come on briefly when you turn the ignition to ON as a check to show you the bulb is working.
Then it should go out after a few seconds. If the warning light does not come on, have it fixed so it will be able to warn you if there is a problem.
If the warning light stays on, or comes on while you are driving, the SSPS system may not be working.
Your computer will need to be scanned to determine what the problem is with your SSPS system.

What is the SSPS warning light? what does it mean? used to flash on and off now its staying on more. I saw someone asked the question, but I don't know Spanish!

this is the speed sensitive power steering system light and it is usually due to either a problem with the sensor, located at the base of the steering column or the pump itself might be defective.

The SSP light just came on in my 2004 suzuki forenza. Does that mean I have to take it for service.

The SSPS light is for the Speed Sensitive Power Steering. Mine comes on sometimes but after cycling the ignition switch goes off.
