The issue was suspected to be a defective cable or plug, possibly affecting the power steering. After consulting a mechanic, a defective connector in the steering system's electrical harness was identified and replaced, resolving the problem.

Thanks, I checked the hydraulic fluid level, and it's fine. For the pressure hose, are there specific points to inspect or tests to check its integrity?

Without proper diagnostic equipment, pinpointing the exact source is tricky. Given the error code and symptoms, and since you've checked the fluid, a workshop visit is probably the next best step. It could be a failing steering pump, but a proper diagnosis will save you time and money.

I saw a mechanic who found a defective connector in the steering system's electrical harness. Replacing the connector and wiring cost 95€. The power steering is now working. Thanks for the help.

Sounds like a potential pressure hose issue or low hydraulic fluid. Also, check the steering pump itself for any obvious leaks or damage. Is the fluid level where it should be?
