Power steering failure?!?!?

What's up TMS fam! I'm having a problem with my powered steering. When I'm making a turn at a slow speed or a u turn or jus pulling out in reverse or any movement in any direction my steering wheel stiffens up and becomes hard to turn the wheel! Check the fluid and all and its full. Anyone know what it might be???

Sounds light the steering pump has air or you need a new pump

Well i had to relocate my powersteer resevoir after installing a supercharger and the same problem with the steering,I drain the lines and refill it and let it idle for ten minutes and the problem was gone

But it could be other parts in the steering that could be failling,I would take it to the dealer to cee if they know what to do

I did some research and It might be the idle pully or harmonic balancer. Idk yet I'm going to look into it more tomorrow.
