Default Crazy steering problem, any fix?

Haven't touched my Firebird for a long time but yesterday I wanted to show it to the twins again (they were too young in the past and were almost afraid).

So they enjoyed it a lot yesterday but it had steering problems. Since I'm better in French than English I made a video of what's going on and hope I'm not the first one with that problem... hopefully someone will have a solution.

A quick search about steering problems gave no results similar to mine...

almost looks as if your potentiometer wires are loose or barely making contact
pull the pcb cover off the top of the elects, and check the black white and orange wires right next to the driver front of the electronics package. see if they are connected solidly.

Not sure what jittering mean in french but I guess so. When I turn the car upside down and look at the wheels while slowly turning the steering, the wheels get crazy instead of a linear smooth analog movement.

jittering is like it makes something like a vibarating noise and it moves side to side really fast but not all the way.
