Gearbox is now fixed but I have another problem. Didn't do it for the 60 mile trip driving home when I bought it. I've dropped the box and replaced bearing and put it all together. Now, it starts fine and the red light goes out, but as soon as you try and pull away and turn the steering goes heavy and the light comes on. Turn off and restart and it does the same thing.
Drive it with the steering heavy and go round the block and then restart and it clears it up and it then stays off.
Yet to check battery but could it be a slightly flat battery nearing it's end?
Or could it be the speed sensor... It did come apart while doing the gearbox and I put it back together. I read somewhere that it can effect the power steering?
Anyone know?
Battery reading is 12.7v now its okay
Will check tomorrow when it's been stood for a day.
Any help would be appreciated.
