Default POssible power steering problem?

I got an 88 CRX and when you turn the wheel right, it turns fairly easy, but when u turn the wheel left, its as if there is no power steering at all. Culd this just be because the fluid is low? Or something bigger?

Look for the power steering pump. It should be run off of the main crank pulley to the right side of the engine(driver's side). My hunch is that there is no power steering and just maybe the ac compressor if you have it.
