tank,
just made a phone call for you apparently the pump and steering rack are as one unit......was told to check the live at the pump it's fed by a fuse under the bonnet could be orange or pink this could be your first point to check......after that it's the whole unit.

hope it helps,

Thanks Pete,will give them a call.

Peter,i tried the fuse,its a 50 amp one in ther fuse box.Looks okay unfortunately.Im a little confused though(not hard i know)as i have found a couple of units on a couple of sites showing the EPS for a Vauxhall Corsa/Combo.A strange looking thing and hard to describe.Guess i will have to look into it in more detail.
All help appreciated though
