Might have air in the system. Are there bubbles in the power steerins fluid? Also what kind of fluid does your car take? I know my 91 takes dextron tans fluid for the power steering, not sure about your 97.
Hi daffy. I'm having a similar issue. Just the track light is on. One thing I've noticed is after i wash the road grime off the light goes away. As soon as some of this snow melts I gonna check the harness to the abs sensors. Maybe I'll get lucky and its just a damaged wire.
check the tubes connecting the maf to the throttle body. make sure they're tight. look for cracks as well. is the IAC receiving a vacume signal? check connections on plug wires and coils also. hate to see this go to scrap.
Test the resistance of the wire. Hook a spark tester up and see what kind of spark ya get. Is it weak? Also check the wire fore damage. When I bought mine the last owner had routed one of the wires so it was rubbing the timing belt.
