    I have replaced the power steering pump when I disconnect the lines going to the steering actuator nothing comes so am thinking I might of gotten a bad pump is it possible that the tube where the steering cable goes into could be corroded on the inside which makes hard to turn

    I loosen the nut on the steering actuator and it helped it a little to turn but still hard to turn the wheel before I spend money I would like to make sure whether its the steering cable or the steering actuator
