2001 Focus was leaking from the pressure sender unit which is on the line from the pump to the rack I removed it and blocked off, there seems to be no lights come on and steering is fine So my question is the purpose of this part Can i do without it ?

It is for maintaining idle speed for when the power steering pump is loaded up, its an on/off pressure switch. It may possibly cause momentary low idle speed condition, shuddering from the steering and maybe even log fault codes. I'd be interested to see what effect it has, its not fitted for no reason.

Freddie--during "normal' driving you probably won't notice it. It will be parking you notice it the most.The car might stall for "no reason"
