Power steering failure
Hey folks,
Did a power turn (donut)with the Mustang....engine hit the rev limiter.....and then no more power steering. Fluid reservoir is full, no leaks, belt is still there.....fluid is not circulating in the reservoir. Any suggestions? Quick fix or am in for replacing the power steering pump? I can still steer the car, however at low speed, I need 2 hands to turn the wheel, just like the old cars with no power steering......
Please advise.....

I don't really understand how the code reader would pick up on the power steering since it's mechanical....but I will be bringing it to the dealer on June 3rd for a diagnosis.....Is there a pressure relief valve in the power steering pump?
