Check the wires in your steering column and maybe grounds in the engine bay? Also maybe power steering problem ie hoses cracked pinched. Belt too tight? All long shots but its where I would start. Hope that helps

earth in the bay is all good, how should it help checking the cables at the steering column? no cracked and pinched powersteeringhoses either, switched the sensor on there just a little better though.. :rant:

try backing out your idle adjustment screw on the intake, 1 or 2 full turns

If that doesnt help check to see if your power steering switch is connected. If it is try disconnecting it and see if there is a difference. The input to the ECM can be buggy on 90's Nissans. Its on the bracket where the powersteering flex line meets the body of the car.
