Power steering went out

Hey there,

Weird thing happened to me today. I was installing the Honda OEM fog light kit for the 2008 Fit. It actually went well and it is working correctly. The thing is now when I start the car, the steering icon comes on and no power steering. I drive for a few minutes then I have power steering again but the light is still on. I turn off the car then back on and no power steering.

Could it be that I hit something in the fuse box when I was working on the wiring. The EPS fuses are ok. If anyone has any ideas, that would be great.

Thanks,

Mark

Thanks for the info. When I was doing some work on the car, I disconnected another wire that was attached to my remote starter. Had nothing directly related to the power steering but it was affected. Reconnected it and all was good.
