Power steering going crazy.

I have recently been having problems with my power steering I've cleaned all the contact's so many times I can't see that being the problem anymore. Today I was driving and the car started to pull to the right without me guiding the wheel. Also later in the day I was sitting in the drive thru and without me touching anything the wheel just started turning. I think it is the module I was wondering if anyone else had any thoughts.

i just might have a solution... but let me try the thing for a month then i will post a thread
There are solutions:
1. Clean the contact points(harness), which is what have been in all threads about this problem!
2. Hard wire(solder) the connections.
3. Purchase and replace the Electric Power Steering harness.

Thank you, I think my best bet is replacing the harness because i have already payed my mechanic on two different occasions to fix the contact's and it's only lasted a month each time. Appreciate the help.
