Hi All,

My Fabia 1.2's Power steering warning light has started to come on at recent cold startups.

If you turn off the engine then re-start it, the warning light disappears, on a hot start this problem never occurs.

Has anyone else experienced this type of problem?

Cheers

Might be power steering fluid is past it or low and has too much moisture in it. Old volvo of mine used to squeel when starting when cold and once warmed up was ok. i changed fluid which was well past it and problem stopped. Still worth getting it scanned to see if its stored any codes. Could be as simple as a low battery.

Yes, it's caused by the battery voltage dropping too low, you need to recharge the battery overnight.

Thanks guy's, your response has cured the problem, much appreciated!
