Rack/steering sensor
I bought my first Corvette (2000) a couple of months ago and have done quite a bit of work to it. Pulled the motor and resealed everything,
replaced front left wheel bearing, new water pump, hazard button, and rack and pinion. After I did the rack I am getting the 1288 and 1281 codes (which I did not have before replacing the rack). I took it to a tire kingdom to have a wheel alignment done but am still getting the codes. Now I know tire kingdom is not the preferred vendor for corvette repairs but thought an alignment would OK. How can I check the steering sensor to confirm if it's bad or good? Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Love my Vette!!!!!
