Right, each time i start the car up the power steering doesnt work but everything else does like the rear heated screen and the blowers so its not the common problem that i had a while back.
there is enough fluid in the resivoir(sp) and sometimes it will come on after 10-15 mins but others it just wont come on.
i think it may be a loose connection as i had it re-wired when everything went.
any ideas or anyone with the same problem?
