Secondary Steering Alarm Active
Diagnosis & fix steps
LOGIC: Emergency Steering Pump Motor Relay Control Circuit Open.
ACTION: Measure emergency steering relay coil resistance (~32Ω). Inspect wiring harness running to the auxiliary electric-hydraulic pump behind the articulation joint.
Red Seal field insights
Emergency Safety: If primary engine-driven steering flow drops, the controller energizes this circuit to drive the auxiliary DC steering pump; open wiring trips an immediate startup alarm.
