    Default Vectra c steering rack dashboard steering wheel

    Hi I have had my steering rack and track rod ends replaced on my 52 plate Vectra c for its Mot which it has passed.Problem is the steering wheel has lit up on the dashboard the mechanic says it just needs to be on the computer to remove this,i am not sure about this as when driving it seems a bit slightly stiff any ideas about this.Regards Martin.

    Have they done wheel alignment properly

    it may be lit up because of the steering angle sensor.

    This is your problem.

    Check (and top up) your Power Steering fluid, the steering wheel warning light will go out and you'll get your steering back.

    There's a How to in the Technical Section to help you.
