Chris - First thing I’d do is burp the air out of the PS system exactly as Andrew suggests below and see what happens.
If that doesn’t help then suspect a problem the pump – either the pump itself or the relief valve. If it’s the relief valve you should hear a squealing sound from inside the pump when it’s dead-headed - especially when the steering hits the stops. Otherwise the pump is tired and cannot make sufficient pressure.
