Default POWER STEERING PUMP----HELP!!!!

I just recently changed the rack and pinion out, but my car is still making a noise when the wheels turn, its not as loud as it was before, but it makes a slit noise. how can you tell if your power steering pump is going out...thats the only thing i think it can be...since the rack and pinion i just replaced so it no longer leaks anymore...thanks for the help

A worn pump would make a squealy type noise constantly...since its belt driven.
What does your noise sound like?
