Power Steering whine when A/C is on??

Question:
I have a 2005 Dodge Magnum SXT. When I turn on the A/C the car whines. It sounds like a power steering whine and is affected by turning the steering wheel. The p/s fluid is full and only does it with A/C on. Any ideas??

Answers:

why do i have only 5.5 volts going to my hi pres. fuel pump f150?

I agree with the other to check the belt but also, the extra load with the a/c on could affect the power steering pump. Have you opened the hood and listened to the differences in sound of the steering pump? If your steering isnt feeling harder I wouldnt worry about it. I ran into this a lot at honda. People would complain of normal noises, but when a person is worried and sits in the car often.. they notice subtle differences. I am sure its nothing.

My sister says check the serpentine belt, sounds like the drag of the A/C compressor is making the belt slip and squeel. Either it is loose or needs replaced!

how do you know if fuel injector is bad?

it sounds like its your belt.
