HELP Power steering not working i think?
I have a Focus 1.6 Black on a 51 plate, The alarm is a Clifford AVANTGUARD 5.1
Last night i was a little aggressive with me car, I was driven quick came to a corner and done a little wheel spin as i was driven my steering become very heavy and hard to turn, i left the car over night and went on the piss again
when i came home I looked under the car to see if I had a leak but there was nothing there so i unlocked the car and it chirped (alarm had been set off) but there is no one about, started the car and it is so hard to turn the wheel. This morning I checked under the car and had a good look under and the engine bay can't see jack. I lock the car just went on the laptop and then the alarm went off for no reason.
I have a funny feeling that the alarm is playing up I don’t really have a clue to be honest so can anyone HELP me please

you mite have water in your alarm that might be setting it off
if you can find it try to see if there is any water around the box, or along the wires running to the box. i had this prolem with my old escort, the alarm had water in it, was driving down the road then the car cut out.
as for the steering i dont know unless some thing has given way or been hit of a bump or some thing.
hope this helps you out

The power steering motor thing need’s to be replaced. The guy said it may set me back £300 for the new motor then you got labour on top
