EQUINOX POWER STEERING

I have an 09 Equinox Sport with the 3.6 motor, my power steering gets hard especially when I'm slowing down to make a turn. So I started noticing that once I accelerate it works fine ( like when the rpm's are above 1000 to 1200) I've replaced the power steering motor/pump and from reading other posts it doesn't sound like the fuse.
Any knowledge or ideas?
Thanks in Advance

If the above does not correct the issue, you may have a faulty pump or a bad rack & pinion.

Solved! Po
If your 80 Amp fuse was not the issue to the loss of your power steering try and wiggle the wiring on you Power steering motor and push in the connectors under the steering column. Do not know if it a temporary or a permanent fix. This might be a quick and easy fix.

MY 2007 EQUINOX LT POWER STEERING HAS STOPPED WORKING. STEERING IS VERY HARD AND AM UNABLE TO PROPERLY STEER. I UNDERSTAND, THE EQUINOX DOES NOT HAVE A POWER STEERING PUMP BUT RATHER A POWER STEERING MOTOR. WHAT CAN I CHECK FOR TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION? ANYONE ELSE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM?

SOLVED! Sudden loss of Power Steering
The same thing happened to me! i was driving in the highway and suddenly my steering wheel clicked and my power steering was gone. I managed to drive it like that for a couple days while I researched what the problem might be. I finally gave up after numerous hours researching. I gave up and tried trouble shooting myself! So first thing i did was get it scanned a C460 code came up and i checked the fuse and it was fine. Since that wasn't the problem; with the car off I removed the cover for the electronic power steering motor and wiggled the wiring and made sure all the connector were probably seated and clicked. I turned the car on and it started working! The power steering was back! I did not disconnect the battery or anything I do not know if it a temporary or a permanent fix but I just started my 5th day after i did this and power steering is working fine! Saved me couple hundred of dollars of diagnostic and numerous headaches! It's worth the try!

Stiff steering
So we changed out the ball joints in my 2011 chevy equinox lt. After changing them the steering wheel got stiff. It gave me an a message of service power steering. We checked the 80 fuse and it's working. Anyone else had this problem or any suggestions on what it could be?

I think you're about 11 years too late. I posted the part number above (22689708). You can buy them from eBay, Amazon, RockAuto, or a dealership. You could yank one from a junkyard too. This same fuse is/was used in numerous GM models that have electric power steering.
