coolant buzzer and no power steering indicator after drivers side harness fix

Did some repairs to the harness by the spark plugs including moving the wires around T1 which involve these wires shown in this post to a position where I can move them out of the way when I take out spark plugs:

https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/what-wires-am-i-looking-460081/

Pulled the harness up from behind the power steering pump. Did the repairs, soldered, heat shrinked tubed, added silicone coated fiberglass wire sleeves from mcmaster.com, retaped and installed.

Now the coolant buzzer stays on, and the power steering sensor (PWS) on the PFC doesn't highlight with left or right turns. There is continuity between the coolant sensor plug and the black connector coming from the coolant level sensor area, ending behind the power steering pump.

The other sensors I can't seem to get to highlight are the CAT and PRC.

Looked in the 93 body electric manual tried following the wire diagram but I'm not that good with them. Pages c1-3 shows behind the coolant level sensor C1-07 is a connector between emission (EM) & Engine (E) labeled C1-06 with black wire to brown/white then to an X-12 which is labled in a picture on page C1-6 which I think is the white connector that comes from the side of the power steering pump, though it's labeled gray. I don't think I have to go beyond that to the x-06 terminal under the steering wheel.

I couldn't find anything helpful about the power steering sensor.

I've rechecked the terminal connections behind the power steering pump and all looks good. could not ground out the brown/white or any other wire to get the buzzer to stop, (waited for a minute).

Would some point me in the right direction for fix? Thanks.

Ok I found in the body electrical manual that the X-12 is a common connector so I went to the Common Connector section and determined that it's by the diagnostic box. checked continuity and I don't have it on the brown/white wire.

Are there any fusible links in the harness? I recall seeing some thingys in the harness. and if there are fusible links so where can I get replacements?

Still need a plan for the power steering, Anyone know where the electrical section is that addresses the power steering?

Alright, thanks for everyones help. The blue and white wire off of the X-12 connector (in the middle left) goes to the power steering connector plug.
