My power steering just stopped one day. no warnings. fluid is full and no leaks.
I replaced my steering pump just over a year ago. 2002 disco. Drives fine just no power steering. Any ideas?

Did you install a new, used or rebuilt pump?
What color is th fluid and does it have a burned smell?

I had it done at a reputable service center. ..I assume it was a rebuilt one cost 277.00. Fluid is red. No burnt smell.

Never buy a rebuilt pump from, they nearly always fail.
You could have purchased a new on for $325 to $350.
When the engine is running is the fluid in the p/s bottle swirling?
