Now then ppl, I have recently put an xe in my corsa b sxi (wiv my good friend Sparke)..
Everything is working perfectly as it should but for the life in us we can't get the electric power steering to work.. On the mk4 astras we know they run off a pulse from the alternator so it works automatically when u put an xe or let in them..
Can anyone help and tell us how to wire it in, this is the only thing letting the car down on as its on an x-reg and has been very well looked after..

Thanks

run a wire from the rev counter wire to the green wire behind the drivers kick panel and it will work
