Hey when I'm in park or driving I hear a whiney low pitch noise come from the steering column? (Usually only when turning)

I also hear it loud from the out side and when I start up the engine it sounds louder than usual with out even turning the steering wheel.

I just got my steering column changed and the infamous rattle went away but I still have the low pitch whine noise...I was thinking possible the electric steering motor or something?

any ideas?

 

Bump

 

power steering pump?

 

my guess would be power steering pump and/or belt

 

low fluid.......hahahaha

the second belt...The first one should be fine

 

damn I didn't know they're was 2 belts or a pump



according to the dealership they're is no pump?
What does the second belt run?

 

bump

 

Nah man, there isnt any pumps cause its electrical. I have the same whiney noise on mine when i turn the wheel, so i just ignore it.. Until something goes bad... -.-

 

right -o-

its electric the assist motor is bolted to the column they replaced. No fluid. i dont know about the noise, i had a column replaced and no noise like whining.

 

just to let everyone know...i replaced my alternator and now no more whine from the steering wheel when turning... and no the whine wasn't actually coming from the alternator all though it was whining a little bit
