A noise comes from the power steering pump area when the wheels are turned all the way to the right or left. Do you know the possible causes?

kind of a whining noise? that is normal. the pump should be like that because its built up the pressure and it wont release as wheel wont turn more. causing strain on it and the whine to start.
