Technical pas some times cuts out
Has been discussed. Check your voltage on the battery and also with car running in neutral. Should be 12.6V or higher and 13.8 to 14.2V when running. If that is ok check the level and condition of PS fluid. It is possibly old, burned out and low. You have my how to with photos of the exchange on the forum. In the end I used 8mm tubing that I stuck onto the catether too draw fluid out. It was too slow with the thin tubing that came with catheter (too much resistance). If the fluid is fresh and clean, then its possible corrosion on the wire terminals on the PAS unit. In any case you are not alone a lot of us and vec c owners are having it from time to time.
