Busy day I bought this car and the power steering is out. I don’t know if it needs a rack and pinion like how the it kind a looks like it’s connected to the wheel or if it needs a motor which is tucked down below behind the engine, like towards the center of the car under the hood down on the bottom, there’s an exhaust shield over it, my friend at the junkyard said that it’s that it’s that motor that’s back there and not the rack and pinion

It has electric steering. I had a new rack installed & it drove fine after that. Cost about $800 ! I made a video of me picking the car up & driving it.

Did you get this fixed? I ask cuz I just bought this car for 4500... The previous owners told me they had recently replaced the rack and pinion. ... Well suddenly while driving service advance trac service light came on and service power steering now.... I still had power steering until I went to drive it the following day. I then asked the previous owner if he had put new rack and pinion due to power steering issue. He said yes. I called Ford and they said I need a new rack and pinion.... Why would of it been resolved temporarily when the previous owner swapped out rack and pinion? I am heart broken I have spent so much money on this car to have this issue. .. I can't afford to have wrong parts be installed.

As you found out it is electric power steering, have the code scanned. More then likely it's the steering wheel position sensor. I recommend a Motorcraft sensor and you will need a scan tool to make the car learn the new sensor. Scan for ABS codes for the Trac light. The tire pressure light is either a low tire or a bad sensor. Scan PCM for check engine light. Does your buddy with the shop in Wake Forest do late model or only classics?
