The power steering went out just before Christmas.

I was driving it and everything was working fine.

Stopped with the engine off for about 30 to 45 minutes.

Started it up again and no power steering.

I have done some measuring around and using a multi-meter

(Before the ECU stops trying) have determined the following:
The relay is fine

+12V on both contacts.

There is

+12V going to the pump motor

+12V coming out of the motor

(Black) Not so good.

At least it isn't the pump motor.

According to diagrams on the web this wire goes back to the pump driver box

(Silver box at the back of and right side of the frunk as you look to the back of the car?) Is this right and am I likely looking at having to change this box?
Any other suggestions/advice gratefully accepted.
