Probable cause
The loss of pressure in Electrohydraulic Servovalve (EHSV) within the nose wheel steering manifold due to contamination in the C1 orifice of the valve, which resulted in an uncommanded turn of the nose wheel during landing rollout. A contributing factor was the pilot's improper use of the steering handwheel when attempting to correct directional control during the landing roll.
