Power steering works sometimes and sometimes not. Looking for a solution.Could it be so simple just to bleed or is the pump bad or worse, is the R&P going out?
I would also say make sure your belt to power steering pump is in good shape and adjusted.

The power steering pump shaft may have broken inside the pump. I have seen this happen on a these trucks. Have your pump checked.
are you sure the noise is comming from pump and not the belt tension pulley right next to it ?
I use a wiffle ball bat with both end caps cut off (hollow tube) held to my ear to help localize noises on running engines I have even found tricky intake vac leaks with that trick
SOURCE: where is the power steering pump on 2002 chevy venture
You can see the power steering pump on the front
of the motor
It along with the alternator ,crank damper & sometimes
water pump,are driven by the same belt ,been that way for
a century
