Loud resonating sounds from an exhaust or whatever can screw with it

I had to replace ball joints + tie rods on Hicas and have been having
problems and issues with Power steering and Hicas Warning light on
and off, ever since. Does this sound familiar ????? Hicas on 32s Seem
to be problematic.. Any advice ???

Ditch it. A lot of people take it off to save weight and because they don't like a computer telling them what the best line around a corner is, especially if its not working. But from what I've read low fluid, loose electrical connections, and worn bushing are the main causes of hicas malfunctions. Can you feel if it is working?

Yes, it seems to work o.k.
Im having car serviced very soon. Ill get my man
to check it out properly. I'll let you know asap what
he finds.. Thanks..
