hey guys

i have a 2000 durango 5.9 slt

recently i have been having problems with my power steering one minute it works and the next it doesnt .
fluid is at the correct levels

any idea on what may be the problem ?

 

could be a couple of things. the power steering pump could be on its way out. the system could be dirty and sometimes clogging up. the belt could be slipping on the ps pulley, and in rare cases i have seen where the pulley is slipping on the pump shaft do to a broken keyway or"half moon" key or a worn pulley or pump shaft, as im not sure if these are the pressed on type of pulleys or the kind that has a keyway . good luck these are just a few ideas im sure other people have different ones

 

There is a PS senor that could be out. I would replace it because it should be throwing a code if there is an issue.

Next would be the pump or steering box.

 

not getting any codes .

taking it in to my cousins shop on monday . once I find out what it is i will post back .


As for now im going fishing
