Hi - I know there are loads of posts on this, but most look to be dead so i thought i would start again.
I have a 2002 Punto ( Dynamic ) - Mileage 150,000 Km - my power steering light keeps coming on, together with heavy steering.
I have been quoted €750 to fix this - obviously the car is not worth this money, so I am looking for a temp fix to get me thro' the MOT.
I have found that if I switch the engine off - open and slam the bonnet shut - then restart, the steering is O.K again. At times I can get the same result by switching the "City" button on and off.
Obviously this is a Connection / Relay fault - any pointers as to where i might look to solve this.
I can drive the car O.K. but need to pass the MOT !!.
