Power steering light on
I read through a lot of forms and still can’t get the light off.
Problem, power steering light on. Steering wheel with !
What i tried, I took the connectors off and cleaned them I also tested the Ohms on the cables. Nothing worked this far
the wheel still turns easy although this is my first 8 and never driven any other one.

Buy an ELM-327 adaptor, preferably a cabled one. I got this switched one that can read both HS and MS CAN, but it seems that the 8 only has HS CAN, so you can just leave it like that.
While you wait for shipping, download a copy of FORScan, which is a software that can read Ford and Mazda(as Ford essentially owned Mazda a while back) codes and even adjust some settings(like turning off TPMS for your track tires). Sign up their forum and once they approve, you can get a free 2-month key to use the software.

I just went threw the same problems and checked everything and when I replaced the wiring harness for the steering it fixed the problem . I have a 2004 and the harness I replaced was part # F151-67-SHOA . It was $160.00 and easy to replace . I would change that before you do the rack and pinion

Just to let any know who may find this post it turned out to be the module. The voltage coming out should test around 3 and change as you turn the wheel. It was not the cables nor the rack it was the power steering module it’s self. Thank you all that tried to help.
