Hi all, I'm glad to be a part of this amazing website. I just picked up a new to me '98 LX470 last week and drove it home about 800 miles. It seemed to be the roadtrip from hell. When I first inspected the truck, everything ran fine and worked properly with no CEL.
Then just 200 miles into the drive, I started getting CEL codes. 1st was p0441, then I cleared it with my reader. Never came back. 180 miles later I get p0446 and p0420. Clrades those and they never returned.
About 100 miles later I go to start the truck and simultaneously I get a damn p1330 code along with no power steering. Could these be related?
Bottom line
How to fix p1330?
How to diagnose no power steering? The fluid reservoir is full and there is no steering whine. Is there some electrical component that could cause it to fail? A friend of mine said there's a "steering sensor" in these trucks but I haven't found anything about it.
Any advice or experience fixing these issues?? Feeling hopeless
