[Grease Donkey]

Price was approx 300$

This part is the same as Cadillac part number 89060234 Solenoid Kit eg. for a 2004 CTS (90$)

Cadillac (but not Bentley) have issued a service note (see attachment), because the solenoids up until 2004 don't last very long.

Both parts are no longer available new, as far as I could find out.

Update: Bentley has made 3Y0422351 available as super-session for 50% more $$$. Flyingspares were 100% customer oriented and kept the price for the old part as I had been waiting for a while. Thanks, Colin!

3Y0422351 however has a 3 pin connector not a 2 pin as on the Arnage. A little tweaking is required, but then you have powersteering back in your car.

Any idea what happens if you wire this backwards? Not sure that I wired this right as original wiring was destroyed, but steering is a bit stiff when parking.
Thanks!

Just guessing: If your steering is very light at slower speeds around 20 kmh / 15 mph the it may just work the wrong way. It's only a solenoid after all....

The picture above is no help?

Not sure. I will study it more. Thanks for the reply
