Driving me mad a few weeks ago i changed my engine since that i've had no power steering ive plugged the car in and got no fault codes for the sake of it ive changed the pump (new) programmed it aswell with code out of old unit changed the angle sensor (new) and lead from angle sensor to pump (new) ive tested the wires to the pump and live and earth is there don't know what else to do it works at a certain position and you can hear the pump but thats it any advise would be great.

Now I'm having the exact same issue after swapping my gear box.

I put the car on its wheels today and there is no power steering. It works in 1 spot snd I can move the steering wheel about 5-10cm and I can feel the PAS working, but that's it.

Where is the steering rack earthed?

It's not I don't believe. Not directly anyway.

Trying to think what earth connections you'd disturb. This sounds like a job for Taylor who's stripped a few lately lol

its earthed as one down behind the passenger headlamp with a few other systems iirc

Yeah I mean there's no actual earth strap on the rack?

Not on the two Fabias I've worked on.

Figure it out, both these cars have had the gearbox out, one for an engine change, one for a gearbox swap, something has been snapped, crushed or broken, something easily missed.
