- forgot to mention in the video that a bad alignment could cause your steering assist to fail. also the code i was mentioning was P07ae-09.
If this doesnt work then further diagnosis is required and it is a very high chance you need your power steering rack replaced
this is literally exactly what happened to me, great video. I went to get a tire one day and they said my tire pressure sensor was faulty and I didnt have time to run get the part so they plugged it. fast forward now 2 1/2 months the wheel wont turn in gas station parking lot. Watched your video -- almost stopped once you mentioned the radio storing information... glad I didn't. would've fixed it only for it to happen again
Did it work @MasterKaayy
Can I drive to get ot serviced or will I stop again after I put car back in park
Wait it caused you wheel to completely stop turning
And when you replaced the tire sensor it worked again?
mine jus did this smh@kaseysmith7535
Will I stop when I go my next stop to get it checked or still drive with no problem just wondering full details if it works what I'm expecting after
My 2010 just threw this code an I agree they should make a recall on all of them. Such a weird fix
Have a 2019 Fusion with this issue. RIGHT after having a tire place put on new tires and fixed the TPMS. :/ HAS to be related to that, as on the way home from the tire place I lost power steering, and it was working just fine before.
To all having this issue, please file a complaint for this to NHTSA so they can put a recall on this issue.

@@TB-hr9cb I just want everyone with a 2013 Ford Fusion to report this particular issue because NHTSA only recalled SOME of this year's, make and model for this issue when they SHOULD recall all of them because Many don't fall under their small umbrella. It's an extremely costly fix and Ford should be fitting the bill for Their mistake.
It is a recall but it’s for 150k miles or 10 years which ever comes first
@@keemkai4793 I'm under 150K miles. It's only for certain cars. It's not across the board. Cars sold out of certain states.
Are you kidding?!?! 😆So it happens I was messing with the tire pressure monitors. I replaced a faulty sensor and then attempted to reprogram them with the EL50448 tool but it happened that the 4th one was also bad and couldn't complete the learning process. I didn't had an additional sensor at the time so I ordered one online and left the car like that, essentially, missing a TPMS sensor. I week went by and I left for a 200mile trip to the other side of the island and the PS quit on me then. Had to drive the car like that the ENTIRE weekend, not fun. I get back home and started researching the issue and found your video. I also scanned the car and it gives me code U3000-96-C8 which indicate R&R the rack. After getting a dealer sticker shock of $2000 plus tax for a new rack, I'm gona replace all the faulty TPMS sensors and try your trick and hopefully, it will work. Will post more when done...
Did it work?
@@emanuelagache Sadly, no. Bit the bullet and replaced the steering rack with a rebuilt unit from AutoZone. At $340, a good deal over my local Ford dealer that wanted $2k for a new one and were on backorder.
@@FredLarracuentenow it’s running without a problem ?
@@unune9069 yes. No issues with the rebuilt unit. Going on 3k miles on it.
@@FredLarracuente can you say what exactly you rebuilt?
My power steering light came on and we put it in on the code reader and there was no code.
Bro you know what's of problem with code p2004 how to fix it.. help any . thanks
@alarracuente did it work?
DUDE YOUR A FUCKNIG LIFE SAVER SAME WITH THE 2010 AND UP MERCURY MILAN IM DELAING WITH THIS NOW
Same
I went, had the air pressure sensor changed. Then, I drove home and unhooked the battery. Left it sit over night and hooked it back up this morning. Engine light went away but, no power steering.
So leaving the battery disconnected for the six hours will clear the service power steering now code?
Did you ever find out ?
Anyway to bypass the tire pressure sensor from preventing steering from working?
Let me know if you find out brother
@@dinerogang206 only for that is to get a new set of tire pressure....
Does it have to be both battery cables?
Yes. You want to lose full power and ground from the battery.
Still relevant. Sudden "steering loss, stop safely" out of nowhere. I was about to call for an appointment after checking the wiring and the fuses. Glad I saw the message at the end. I've been getting the tire monitor error since I changed back to my winter tires and figured I would get the faulty module replaced in the spring when I swapped back. (the tires are fine, its just a bad sensor) Never thought the two could be related. Battery's unplugged now, fingers are crossed.
Did it work? Haven't had issues with the tire sensor fault, but it has been on every other day from a nail. Actually have an appt to get Winter tires tomorrow so wasnt worried about it...going to give this a try for my Service Advancetrac and Service Power steering codes🤞
@@mattbray4811 unfortunately for me I actually need a new power steering rack.
@@slayermcbyou sure it wasn’t a sensor issue?
@justsimplytrash6703 2 separate mechanics said the same thing, new rack needed, and I had to have the dealership replace it due to programming.
@@slayermcb For my fusion its been sitting for months (I went to school and left my car at home) and no one was taking care of it so the battery died so I changed the battery but my tires were flat then all of a sudden I lost my power steering, I honestly hope my powersteering needs a reset
What if my car says service power steering now
chk the tire pressure sensors first....i had a bad one on driver side tire and the service power steering light come on along with the advanced tracking and was very hard to steer .....free fix at discount tire cus of the warranty and my power steering is working again
I'm having this exact problem right now with my 2011 Mercury Milan.
@@virgilgeorge6375 if ur tire got too low b4 u noticed it it will trip all the sensors....chk the tire pressure sensors....not saying it will take care of ur problem but that's the first thing I did when it happened to my girlfriends car her tire went flat from work to home.....good luck
@@johnvalderrama9339 Okay, thanks. I'll definitely do that.
Any update about it?
Same happened with me. Yesterday, while driving suddenly the service power steering light came up. Then when I tried to restart the car the steering wheel became rigid.
If o get the tire sensor off will it go back to working or still reset battery?
Id just reset the battery, its hard telling what the computer will do when getting all that info. Im not sayin its 100% accurate but it can happen
@@emanuelagachecan I technically drive it to get it checked or am I safe to drive it regular after the rest jw
Did not work for me just had my rack and pinion changed power steering work for a minute then go out. I have to get my sensors scan new ones.
If you fix the pressure monitors and retrain them, it will still need a pscm reset. Check out the video posted by gridiron search gridiron ford fusion 2012 power steering reset. shows how to do it for free. The rack and pinion change is a rip off and doesn't fix the problem. its all programing
@@TB-hr9cbyou think it would work on a 2010 because i changed my battery and now my power steering needs service now and I have a locked steering wheel
To all watching this video im no mechanic but our serpentine belt went and the car broke down. After buying a new one and figuring out the diagram and installing it we had trouble figuring out the diagram the battery died and since power steering has been out. People have been saying rack is bad but how unlucky could we possibly be? Lol like we literally started the car after replacing the serpentine belt and had this problem. Its crazy that a wheel sensor can cause so much complications smh. I feel bad for those thinking its their rack ($2k) when it can be a sensor smh horrible.
Did not work for me
I have a 2012 Fusion and the battery light always comes on once I start driving. My mechanic said my battery and my alternator were fine. That was months ago. It's so annoying!
your mechanic sucks. you need a battery, an alternator and a new serpintine belt. he has a GED and that is it. go to a real one and get this done. or either he is scamming you. I will tell you the scam here it is: when your battery cannot hold enough charge to power your digital electronic transmisson which is an Aissin F35 FWD transmission 6 speed, then he will tell you to get a new car and sell him that one for 500 to 1000 dollars and tell you the transmission is bad, he will then keep it for a few weeks and then sell it for 6500 to 8000 dollars. or he will tell you that fixing it will cost 2500 or 4600 dollars. either way he will just change the battery and you will be a sucker. i have a 2011 ford fuion, a 2008 mercury milan, a 2008 mercury mariner, a 2011 mercury milan. all of them, I REPEAT ALL OF THEM HAVE OVER 300K MILES ALL ORIGIONAL TRANSMISSIONS AND ENGINES! dont be a sucker please!
The alternative lite have a 10 ampair fuse,,,,
You shoud cheak this,,,
I found a car like this problem
@@connectwithcaralternative lite? Do you nean the Fuse for the Alternator lol?
I'm having exact problem now
search ford fusion 2012 gridiron steering issue
When you get a power steering assist fault what I did was shut the car off , remove key from ignition, open the drivers side door, put key back in, start car, fault goes away!
I just had my rack and pinion replaced for 1400$ and here I am with the same message and my steering gone. I’m so sick of this shit
Quit buying Fords. They WANT you to pay them more and more.
were you able to solve the problem?
@@mulito7823 yes! The shop never flashed the new parts or relearned them. They just put the new parts on and bc the car drove fine they didn’t reprogram that shit. So another 160$ for me to have it flashed at ford and now it’s back to normal and everything’s fine. Unfortunately I have anxiety it’ll happen again bc everyone online says it’s impossible to know what’s wrong lol
My cables don’t reach that far together
Same with me use a wire....
Fook , Normally I would just go trade it in .But intercessor so damn high right now.
Didn’t work
Worked for maybe 2 hours then went back to being bad
Are your tire sensors bad tho? At the end of the video he does say that after doing research he has found that faulty sensors can lead it right back in that mode.
mine keeps saying left front failure@@kuda-hits_all2168
Wasn’t helpful at all lol
Your comment was though
such BS! two different modules that have nothing to do with each other! are you a certified mechanic even? there's/was actually a recall on this issue, a TSB that knocked Ford motors company back millions of dollars, and you think you come up here and post something like this to give people false hope and make views!
I’m debating whether to get a 2010 Fusion or a 2003 Camry. What would you recommend? I like both but the Fusion sorta concerns me because of the issues they’ve had. But it’s newer and feels somewhat safer
My serpentine belt went then my battery died. Right After I fixed the two my power steering was gone. My rack was fine before that problem happened. Ford knew the bullshit they was doing. The dude above said it worked for like 2 hours and stopped. I know after this my next vehicle definitely won't be no shitty Ford 😅
Excellent info. and thanks man.! I like most Ford products but this is a little obsessive I think. At least it's not Nissans, dance in a circle while swinging a dead chicken and fart to north..!! Actually I like the Nissans too.!
