Hi guys i have a problem with steering. customer came for replacing track rod ends so we replaced and then lift car down and steering assist stopped working. checked all the fuses under bonnet,and offside panel looks good. checked wiring positive negative and plugs they are all fine.. vcds shows two same errors rotation pressure sensor. ABS unit shows code no communication with J700 unit which is steering rack. so I've replaced steering rack and its still the same problem... anyone can help me please?

If you have given anything remotely connected to the rack a clowt with a hammer it can f**k the rack sensor wise.

No disrespect dunker but some form of mixed messages

often the solution is “aplliance of science, if not tw@t it with a hammer”
