Ford Focus RS electric steering rack 2014 - 2019

In 2014 the Ford Focus RS changed the electric steering rack used on the vehicles, although similar to other varients this newer steering rack as a different part number of G1F1 - 3D070 - BM this listing is for vehicles that use this part number only.

The steering rack its self, now part electrical contains an ECU, Torque sensor and motor. All of these can lead to different types of problems. Some of the problems that you may find with your steering are;

The symptoms are usually either a complete and sudden loss of power steering and a power steering assist failure message on the vehicles info screen, sometimes this loss of assistance is intermittent whereby the steering will fail to initialise when the car is first started and then come back within a few seconds.

If the fault codes are then read on a scanner, the usual fault code is a generic U3000 followed by a specific 2 digit code of usually 49 or 53. the U3000 code is a failure of the steering rack control unit to communicate with the vehicle, the 49 or 53  relate to either an internal electronic component fault or a failure to initialise with the vehicles body control computer.

The only long term solution to this fault is to replace the steering rack, we can supply a remanufactured rack that we have rebuilt with new components and then programmed with the latest software to prevent a repeat failure.

The racks we supply will self-code to the car and do not need any coding/programming to work correctly.
