If the power steering warning light illuminates on the display of a Volkswagen Golf, there may be electrical issues. First, check that all fuses are intact: to do this, open the bonnet and remove the protective cover of the fuse box. Using a multimeter, if any fuses are blown, they must be replaced.

After checking the fuses, also ensure that all contacts on the power supply plate are intact. Once the fuses and plate have been replaced, verify that the power steering fault has cleared and the warning light is off.
