When the warning light on hydraulic power steering systems comes on in your Ford Mustang, it's likely due to low power steering fluid. If you notice this light, pull over immediately and check the fluid level. Add the appropriate fluid to top it off, and the light should then go off. The power steering system in vehicles helps make steering easier by enhancing the force needed to turn the steering wheel. Hydraulic power steering operates by using pressurized hydraulic fluid to assist with steering whenever the driver turns the wheel. A pump pressurizes the fluid, powering it through a belt connected to the engine.
You can either reset the dcts system or disconnect the power steering assist relay to resolve the warning message error.
