Default Power Steering Pump Issues
I bought a new pump and had it put on but my power steering still does not work. Do you think the pump I bought is defective or could there be some other issue? It was working fine until a couple of months ago when it started making a noise and then stopped working.

I think I figured it out. I drove it a few miles then checked the fluid. It was low so I added some and now it works fine. I think it has worked out some air and in the process pulled the fluid level down.

The fluids are different types. It may not be performing as it needs to. Drain and refill.
