I was working on installing the power steering to the 33 and wanted to verify it worked before I went any further. This comes a complete system from FFR. All the necessary cables were supposed to be included in the kit. As you can see in the pic one of the extension cables is missing in the kit. I contacted FFR and they informed me I am not the only one and they have no idea when they will get the replacements from the supplier.
Check yours if you have not yet.

It is the cable that goes between the 2 red circles in the pic.

Turns out I have 2 of the grey cable extensions in the blue circles in the pic. If anyone has 2 black cable extensions in the red circles in the pic, we can do an exchange

Well that stinks, I hope I have it with the unfinished kit I just bought.

Question on the PS though, it does not appear to have any adjustability. Most electric PS I have seen have a dial where you can set how much power assist you want. Is that not possible with this system?

I do not see any adjustments. Instructions are found here

I connected it without the extension cable and seems to work great. I would assume it applies assistance as needed.
