If I am not mistaken you have an air bag on that vehicle, if you pinch a wire and short the air bag it will go off, and something you definitely want to avoid. I am leaving you a link to a video showing how to remove the steering wheel from an 06 model.. I am pretty sure they are the same..
Change the hose and both hose connections. The hose since it is 6 years old is very soft because of the fluid. Try to get a better quality hose at the parts store. Hope this will work for you and thanks for using FixYa
I had this problem 2 months ago... replaced the powersteering pump 3 times until I convinced the mechanics to look at the rack and pinion. there they found the leak, especially when I turned the wheel.. They first kept telling me there was air in the lines and it would go away. but that never happened.
Sounds like you need a new power steering hose. To verify this, I would dry up any wet areas on the hose and pump with a towel, get a flashlight and start the vehicle and try to determine the exact site of the leak which is usually at the ends of the hoses. Good luck!
well first you go to salvage yard and hope they have 1 arround
unless you get luckey and it is the return hose that is low presure and can be fixed with a couple of hose clamps and a small piece of pipe
