Have you checked inside the reservoir to see if maybe there is something floating around in there?

Yes I did flushed system new fluid.

Something is effecting the pressure, which could be anything from something in the reservoir preventing the valve from closing all the way, hence building no pressure, as mentioned above; to a leak in a hose, to a bad pump. The pressure should be between 80-120 or so at idle at the pump output line and the steering wheel untouched. Turning the wheel a couple times in succession will crank the pressure upwards of 1000-1300 psi.
Open the hood and have someone turn the wheel in both directions and listen for the pressure build. Also look for a leak around the reservoir or along a hose line when it's supposed to be under pressure.
Eliminate the easy stuff first, because a new pump will run you $800.

Did you have the issue before you changed the fluid?
The reason I ask is if it reared its ugly head after you changed steering fluid, I might suspect an airlock in the system, although I don't know that I've ever heard of such a thing. I guess it's possible in any closed loop pressurized system. I haven't thought it through, just posted this as it came to me.

It comes to mind that when you change fluid in power steering you have to turn the wheel lock to lock rapidly 3 or 4 times to get the air out of the system. Then add fluid as needed.

New pump? was the problem the same before the new pump?
