Hi my name is logan and well i just got my car back from the shop 2 days ago and well on my way home from teh shop i notcied that teh steering was really hard and well the mechanic had just replaced the power steering unit so i didnt think that would be a problem but when i got home i opened the hood of teh car and i found power steering fluid all over everything. And im not sure how to get it back to teh it was with nice easy steering. On top of this my buddy tried replacing the pulley on teh car and while he was taking off the the (blocks) in the back of teh fuse blocks one of teh wires pulled out of one of those blocks. Im sorry i dont know what the name of the blocks are. (its where the wires attach to the fuse block and the fuse attaches to them). My buddy tried soddering back teh wire and he got it to stay but i think that teh wire came undone when i was trying to go get gas last night, because the car just died on the way to the gas station. So if anyone can tell me what the name of teh "fuse blocks" are i can order them and replace them. Thanks again for your help.

Sweet jesus dude... decaf from now on alright? Good lord trying to read that almost made my eyes melt outta my head.

You should definitely take it back to the shop that replaced the pump, show him or her the massive amounts of PS fluid laying everywhere, and most places will repair/replace for free since they did a shitty job to begin with.

Does your broken wire feed into the fuse/relay box on the passenger's side of the vehicle, to the big black box with a red top, directly in front of your coolant resevoir? If it is, and it's broken off like RIGHT before the crimp or something, it should be an easy fix, although PICTURES would be fantastic... please? C'mon, you know you wanna ;)
