Maybe more important is the pulley turning the shaft of the pump
and can you see the fluid moving around in the pump through the
filler hole. If you don't see any movement of the fluid then the
pump itself may be bad.

Yesterday I was driving my 96 chebby p/u to take new wheels to that car
I am looking at, I stopped for a quick errand in a shopping center, was
backing out of the parking space, steering got hard, heard the limit
whatever open up and hiss, then no PS any more. Fluid was at right
level so I am wondering if the pump crapped out or the booster thingie
(I have not actually looked at it yet so not sure what is under there)
on the steering gear went out. Any thoughts on this?
I'll give you $500 for it. :-)

P.S. Is the pump pulley turning when the engine is running?
