Hi Ranger Team
I have recently replaced a steering rack for my bakkie a 2023 Ford Ranger Worldtrak T9 after I had an accident with it offroad. After replacement I did the alignment but there was a "Steering Assist malfunction Service" required but it was drivable. Today I decided that I plugged in ForScan OBDLink Ex to reconfigure the steering rack with asbuilt upload but did not clear the warning. Now the steering I can't turn at all even when the engine is running. I have been driving the vehicle with that warning but once I plugged in my laptop today with ForScan suddenly steering no longer turns. I can't drive my vehicle from my garage now. The steering is stiff to turn like hydraulic or motor not active. Has anybody come across this otherwise I am stuck. Please assist
