Yeah, I actually just got mine all sorted out in the last 20 minutes. All you have to do is jump the 9 and 4 pins on the gray HDS plug(rectangle plug, cant miss it) and the EPS light will blink a certain number. Long blinks equal ten and short blink equal 1. So, for example if you have 3 long blinks and one short blink it will equal code 31. let me know what code it throws and I will set you straight from my helms manual or you can google it but I'm more than happy to help you with anything I can.

Depends on the year model. Earlier models are on the passenger side.

oh ok didn't know this. 3fast and 2short would be 32 and that is the code for the main current sensor offset. Check the plug on the power steering motor. it will be a 2wire(green/red) plug maybe it sliiped out of place or one of the terminals inside of it has back out of the connector. THis is exactly what happened to mine a couple days ago

oh ok, well i remember one time we took that plug off and put a tester light on it to see if it had power coming out of it, and it didnt,so basicly there is no power going to the rack. could that little wire/plug have a short? any way to test?
