Of the under-bonnet PAS relay? I don't know what the hell I'm lloking for! Power Steering given up the ghost so I'm looking at the electrics and I know of the three options;

1) Fuse marked 'lambda sensor' in the book,
2) Relay (as I say - what does it llok like?),
3) Main fuse in battery bay. Most likely problem and a pain to get to. Bloody wheel off job!

TIA...

It's the same grey relay on all the later TVR models.

Cheers Guys!

Goodness......my engine bay does NOT look that clean.....

BTW If the PAS starting going sporadically, does it indicate that it is more likely to be the 80amp fuse in the batery bay or the relay?

If it's sporadic it could well be the relay, when I had a problem with mine it just stopped working all together, and that was the relay contacts not making full contact due to not being parallel to each other (manufacturing fault)
