Powersteering Reservoir

[QWK32]

In a R32 GTST there are two wires coming out of the top of the power steering reservoir. What are they for???

my guess is some kind of float level switch (magnetic), when i move the float up and down the shaft and do a continuity test i get an on switch when the float is down the bottom and the signal is broken once i move it back up agian. i cant see any light on the dash that would resemble low p/s fluid. or would it have something to do with the HICAS?

i accidently broke the wires off the top the other week,. they were all brittle and just fell of when i was checking my levels. the steering has been fine with no dramas. Just wondering if its fine to just leave them broken off? anyone know? can't reattach them as they are broken off right where they enter the cap. also i have a HICAS lock bar so i'm not concerned if its hicas related.

should be connected to the 'check engine' light in some way

did it come on?

no warning light came on. but it only completes the circuit when float is down the bottom. i'll test it when i get my car back together by touching the wires together. cant test when ign flicked to on because all the lights are already lit up. cheers
