Yea exactly, but it doesnt show the loaction of the unit, so i figured i would give you the diagram of the whole system.

looks like i miss read my window sticker. i always thought i had servotronic but after rereading the paper it says "engine speed sensitive variable assist steering". servotronic would be vehicle speed sensitive, correct?

well i guess i just wait a week or 2 and do another flush on the system....any other suggestions?

Well, wait - is the steering stiff all the time? or does it come back and forth? The power steering pump might be at fault in that case. I mean as well as other things - if it was just dead it would be the pump, 99% chance it is. But if it comes on and goes out, it could be anything - the pump, the mechanism itself (if you have it of course, etc.. any one of the pieces of the system, could even be a bent hose!)

The servotronic is speed sensative steering. Expensive module. My parents are having a problem with theirs also. Found one on ebay and bought it and its the part number so we have to ebay it again.
