Talisman power steering problem

Hi, I have a 2016 Renault Talisman with a gasoline engine. Lately, the power steering has been acting up. The steering wheel vibrates, handling feels spongy, and sometimes it's really hard to turn. I even got an error message. Anyone experienced something similar?

Power steering issues, huh? I had something similar on my Talisman. Vibrating wheel and all. Did you check the steering pump's pressure hose?

Pressure hose, okay. Where exactly is that located, and is it easy to check myself? I'm not super mechanically inclined.

I wouldn't recommend tackling it yourself, especially if you're not experienced. But yes, it ended up being a defective cable or plug connection to the component on mine. Cost me 95€ at the workshop. It's worth getting it checked by a professional before it becomes a bigger problem.

Thanks a lot for the info! I'll definitely take it to a shop and mention the cable/plug connection. Hopefully, it's a similar fix for me.
