P0779 Solution:
Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Switch Signal Malfunction The PCM counts the number of times vehicle speed transitions from 0 to a calibratable speed. After a calibratable number of speed transitions the PCM expects that the PSP input should have changed. This DTC is set if the transition is not detected. Vehicle towed with engine running Power steering hydraulic concern was repaired but DTC was not erased PSP switch/shorting bar damaged SIG RTN circuit open PSP circuit open or shorted to SIGRTN PCM damaged Check, if possible, if vehicle was towed or power steering service was performed.

How to Clear P0779 Trouble Code
An OBD 2 scanner is the best and safest way to erase a DTC from your car's system. This scanner communicates with the car's computer and instructs the computer to erase the code. It does not change or tweak the settings from inside the car or its systems.
