Have 150 hp Yamaha outboard on Hurricane 22 foot deck boat with hydraulic steering. Boat is fairly new with about 25 hours on it.

Steering completely failed. I can turn the wheel forever in either direction and outboard does not turn at all.

Any idea of potebntial causes for this ?

Is there anything that I ( a newbee ) can do to diagnose and or fix this ?

Thanks in advance for your help

First I would check to ensure that it is hooked up under the dash to the wheel housing. It moght be possible that it just came loose.

Beyond that, I have no clue. How old is the boat. Only 25 hours, would it still be under warranty...
