Yes my power steering failed, I ordered a new and started getting ready for the install and found the wiring harness on the power steering pump was not plugged in all the way. I plugged it in and all was good. There have been other reports about this.

I couldn't hear it in the video, but if there's a sliding red switch on that connector, there should be an audible and tactile <snap> when it's properly engaged (i.e., locked). That's only possible when the connector itself is fully seated.

Correct, I could not do it while holding the camera. But yes It does snap.

I know I'm correct, John. ;)
Maybe update the description in your video to mention that bit of important intel.
Comments are turned off; otherwise I'd have added it.

Update Issue not resolved, Jeep sat at dealers for Six weeks now, waiting on wiring harness, possibly arriving early January. This is pathetic Jeep Australia,
