K12 1.2s Problems

Have 3 problems with the 2003 Micra.

PS light is coming on, no power steering, all the time
NATS light is coming on, intermittant, can resolve by removing & replacing a fuse
Tailgate locks itself & won't unlock, intermittant & currently behaving itself.

Had the AA out, they ran some diagnostics on it, cleared the NATS light by removing & replacing a fuse, couldn't do anything about the PS. Said they were getting fault code U1001 out of the ECU.

Had a poke around, no sign of any obvious loose connections or chafed wires. Bit worried as a thread on another forum suggests up £600 for a new PS motor.

Also slighty odd that a car that has given trouble free reliable service for 3 yrs has now developed 3 problems since being serviced at the local main dealer 3 weeks ago. 4 if you count the wiper mechanism that broke and had to be replaced when we had the first lot of snow.

Any ideas out there anyone?

cheers,
Mr E
