yes, the PS pump is new as well as the rest of the system, including the PS reservoir. the belt is fine, I double-checked it at one point.
the steering rack - I reinstalled the original as it looks completely fine and acts exactly the same as the other one.
The power steering is not working at all. not even a bit...
i got zero improvement vs how if felt right after the accident.
that's why I'm leaning towards something electrical. Thank you for the hint of AFS initialization.
