Lexus RX Electric Steering Column Problem

My 2013 Lexus RX with a gasoline engine has an electric steering column issue. It stopped adjusting, shows an error, and I'm wondering if it's a loose connection like a faulty wire. Anyone seen this?

I have an RX too, and I had something similar happen. Check the connections under the steering wheel. It could be a simple fix, like a loose plug.

Thanks. Could you be more specific about which connections to check? Any areas that loosen easily, like a fuse box or relay?

I'm not super familiar with the electrical components, but when my steering column acted up, I took it to the workshop. They found a bad connection. It's probably best to get it checked out by a professional.

Thanks for the advice. I took it to the workshop, and you were right. A defective cable/plug connection was the problem, costing 95€ to fix. I appreciate your help!
