Do not overflow coolant tank!
 
i accidentally overflowed my coolant tank and it was dripping on one of the power steering connector down below the coolant tank and now i dont have power steering!! i dont know for sure is this was the cause but it seems pretty obvious.
i'll get in there 2morrow and clean the connector to see if this help.

common issue
clean up those connectors with contact cleaner and it should fix your problem.

More than likely overfilling the coolant was the cause.
This is why some people route a longer hose past the connector.
Cleaning the connector under the intake box usually takes care of it.
