Default low power steering fluid warning light

found out something interesting today,

seems my oil cooler lines have rubbed a hole in my power steering line

when the traction control light came on, then the low coolant light was flashing.

thought it was strange as i dont have TC in the xr, and i knew my coolant was fine. pulled over an checked anyway and yep coolant was full.

kept driving trying to work out what was going on, till i pulled over at a servo and checked all the fluids just to make sure. and power steering was empty.

topped it up and kept driving. ill get some prices first thing tomorrow, but as soon as i put fluid in the lights all went away.

just thought id put this up incase it happens to anyone else.
