Power Steering Pump: Description and Operation

The power steering pump, which is driven by the crankshaft through a drive belt and pulleys, develops the hydraulic pressure required to assist the 
steering system.

Fluid is drawn into the vane-type pump from the power steering oil reservoir when the engine is running.
