Caterpillar NR16KC No steering

Hi there
Can anyone help out with this truck which has no power steering at all. Its really a Rocla dressed up as a Cat with Zappi AC controllers. Ive got voltages at the Zappi power steer box but no fault codes flashing in the diagnostic window.
Thanks
Kev

Hi
this truck starts on a key, it doesn't have a keypad at all.
It has a rectangular indicator panel but there aren't any codes on it. I'll look for the fuse you've described when I go back.
Cheers
Kev

hi kevtwad
is the unit you are working on an a/c steer motor and do you have to input start code from a circular type keypad ?
if so check that the power steering fuse is not blown which is hidden right next to the steer controller on one of the buss bars its a funny square type of fuse that joins the buss with the controller and hard to spot if you don't know its there that's providing we are talking about the same machine as the model number appears slightly different the fuse looks like a square liquorice allsort with fuse wire inside it good luck
