Same with mine. I have one good pump left. My de-powered steering is very sluggish, but it is fine for lane changing, and I know I can downgrade it to manual if I want to. Fr3AkAzOiD has good advice, test in a safe place.
It may be that Jammer is experiencing the loss of an "exploit". What I mean is, as cars get more complex, they can get harder to spoof and/or mod. I have read here that the newer ECU/PCMs are harder to work with, probably because the programming is more complex. I like the 1996 to early 2000 cars because they have fuel-injection, OBD-II, and "simpler" drivetrains, if that's the right word. It's like a window where you get OBD-II for the Scangauge, but the car's are still "older tech", if you will.
