Steer-by-Wire Failure.
Diagnosis & fix steps
LOGIC: Loss of Redundancy in Steering Motors.
ACTION: Inspect the 48V wiring harness at the steering rack. Check for 48V at the primary and secondary power feeds.
Red Seal field insights
Specs: 48V Architecture.
PRO-TIP: Since there is no physical steering column, a total loss of 48V power means zero steering control. Clean all 48V ground points!
