Have you checked all your fuses? To make sure they’re not blown. There is another sneaky fuse that can interrupt the power steering which is Fuse 9 I think, for the headlight adjustment. Had a problem on a van and that fuse had blown and caused the power steering fault.

No comms is likely a CAN network fault (white and red twisted pair of wires found all over the vehicle) - check the harness where they leave the electropump assembly over the front drivers side chassis rail ahead of the engine (below the PS fluid cap/reservoir) - could also be the electropump assembly has died, that also can result in no comms. The fuse you pointed out (F6) is the right one.

Also you won't get a proper code using a standard OBD reader, code 047 doesn't exist. You need DiagBox to get the actual fault code. Here is the official list: (sorry for the long post)

Good stuff. That list only relates to the EHPS system - but I have the codes for other systems when needed.

Glad to hear it's solved for now. Can you indicate which fuse had gone for others who end up with the same issue? Plus it's unusual to blow an 80A fuse without a problem at the other end, so keep an eye out for electropump failure!

hi again, the fuse in question no.5 on the battery plate, the fuse has no window and held contact for about 30 seconds which
is why i missed it first time round when i was too busy dreading what i was going to find.
i take on board what you say about diag.tool but i would never get the value out off it, so thanks for now, mick.
