A quick and dirty pump pressure check can be done by cracking the high-pressure fitting loose and turning the steering wheel slightly. It should spurt. Have a drain pan and rags handy and beware fluid on hot exhaust or on you. Wear eye protection and use safe vehicle jacking/support practices.
A pump producing pressure and under load should make some noise. It is either the pump, lines or gear.
Check fluid condition for metal or debris. It should still use the amber p/s fluid.
