Im pretty sure its just one of the wires, The car just has oil all over the place and its probably just not getting a good ground or something.

As far as the power steering goes, the fluid was the first thing Ive checked. Besides that I havent had any time to check anything else....

And the car never went passed the H mark, although the gauge is a little iffy. Sometimes it just starts to climb and then Ill tap it and it goes back, its wonderful.
