Video tutorial

In this video we see a serious problem that occurred on a Ford Ka MK3: while driving, all the dashboard lights came on, and the message "power steering failure. Repair" appeared on the multimedia screen.

It is evidently a serious problem with the electric power steering (EPS) of our KA, and therefore the steering wheel can become very stiff and difficult to maneuver, putting our safety and that of others at risk. The reasons for such a failure can vary: an electrical fault, a fault in the electronic control unit, a blown fuse, or simply the wear of steering components.

If this failure occurs, as shown in the video, it is advisable to stop and not continue driving, which can be dangerous. All we can do on our own is check the fuse box: the power steering fuse is in the box located in the engine compartment and is number F22. Any other repairs must be done by a specialized technician.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
