1991 Lexus LS400 powersteering & rack&pin

[RSauto]

I have a question. Powersteering didn't work, we replaced the pump(didn't work), we replaced the rack&pinion(still didn't work). Any suggestions? Thanks 2 anyone who can solve this riddle

Perhaps you're fluid lines are blocked. There is a screen on the solenoid that attaches to the rack and pinion - if they took the solenoid from the old rack and reused it on the new one, it's possible it was not cleaned first. There is also a screen in the pump reservoir which has a tendency to get blocked. Often, when the pump is replaced, the reservoir from the old pump is reused. It's also possible you're replacement pump is bad.

VGB 14 has come correct.
