Welcome from America. Thanks for posting your location, you are, indeed, far away. :oops:

Someone will be along shortly with some suggestions on where to start troubleshooting. Hopefully, whatever got wet will dry out and your power steering will start working again. But that won't help if it happens every time it gets wet. :(

Post up a photo of your Talon, everyone loves buggy photos. :cool:

Here are a couple of useful Talon information threads -

Might be a stupid question, but have you checked the fuses?

If you have an air compressor, you could unplug each power steering harness plug and blow it dry.

pull wiring diagram and start checking every wire that goes in and out of the ps unit check continuity end to end and from each wire to ground for a short and of course visual inspection

and please triple check fuses, all connectors are plugged in correctly - etc., basics

hope this helps

Welcome from the USofA
Need pics posed of your rig please! POIDH

You have 21’ talon. They have horrible EPS and dead steer. Instead of farting around with this, do yourself a favor and go to SuperATV.com and buy there updated power steering kit. You will be much happier!
Problem solved

Good info on the SATV PS kit. I have a '20, PS is a little sluggish, but I need new tires, so that may be part of the problem.

what size tires are on this beast?

so I this fixed, yes or no?

if it is fixed, what did you find that ir had no power steering?

fyi - new tires will only make the PS worse IMO as they are gummier\stickier\not rounded. new tires will not fix a power steering problem if it still exists unless in the rare case going to smaller tires.....

good luck and can u Kindly post pics of the beast?
