power steering has packed up and fault light on. have read the codes and have C1007 - Electric motor, C1012 vehicle speed (from CAN), and 20502 which i cant find out anything about??
Anyone know this code?
And what likely to be the fix? Do you think the ECU most likely rather than the electric motor itself.
Any input would be great
thanks Darren

read that,

sounds like this,

"If your steering light has/is on it might not be steering column related,a faulty vehicle speed sensor (or sensor wiring) fault will bring on the light it may also bring on the engine warning light & even stop the speed from working.A error code (P0500) will be logged in either the steering ecu/fuel ecu or body computer.
If this is the case a wiring modification (carried out by dealer) from the speed sensor to the fusebox can be carried out...problem sorted.
It is also worthwhile checking the connectors are 'sound' on the steering ecu as there have been reported cases of loose connectors/wiring in this area."
