Did you ever get this resolved?

I have the same fault in my Citroën C4 picasso, on-board diagnostics machine still working but tried 3 different OBD readers, only seeing power steering. Had a faulty handbrake, wire had popped in rear harness. I fixed this & fault resolved on dash, handbrake works again, but still OBD only seeing power steering

A simple first check is to look at the pins on the OBD connector to ensure that none have been previously damaged.
