If it started out as a whining noise and then quit you probably have a leak. Inspect your lines coming off the pump and your cap or check fluid level if full pump is bad.
The power steering pump has probley quit working.
either the drive belt broke or the pump burned up from being run dry.
Power steering will quit, Water pump won't work. Alternator will not charge.
Yes. Have had this happen to me. A serpentine belt is what brings power to both your alternator and your power steering pump. If the alternator isn't turned by the belt, it can't produce electricity, and your engine will stop. If the power steering pump isn't turned by the belt, it can't move fluid, and your power steering will quit working (note that you can still steer in an emergency, but it's VERY tough). Hope this helps. NJM
Definitely sounds like an electrical short cutting the power to the ignition system. The first place you may want to start looking is the wiring in the steering column if the windshield wiper controls are on the steering column, or behind the dash if the controls are on the dash. The most obvious signs would be burnt and/or bare wires.
Lose of power or ground since all the gauges quit working.
No, Steven Skyler did not quit working on Power Rangers Samurai.
Probably the seat motor
your car stalled?
First thing to check is the fluid in your power steering pump. If the fluid level gets low, your pump will squeal or quit working altogether. Once the pump gets overheated (due to low oil level) it will most likely need to be repaired or replaced depending on the vehicle. There are several variables to consider such as serpentine belt, rack-and-pinion or steering box condition, but the first thing mentioned is where you should start.
2010 marked the end for Pontiac.
No. They sputter for a few seconds then quit running.
