Problem with power steering

So on my 06' S, a while back my power steering stopped working for a little bit. Then it was fine, and it's been off and on lately. Three days ago it stopped, and hasn't been working. I took it to the shop and had someone scan it today, and no codes came up, just that i needed to replace a wheel speed sensor. At the shop when they pulled it in, the power steering worked fine, after he scanned it and they pulled it back out, it didn't work. Not sure what all I should do. I don't want to spend a lot of money and it still not work. Have read some people buy a new PSP and it didn't fix it. Any ideas on what it could be, what I should do?

Check your VIN to see if the recall has been done. If not, you can get it fixed, for free!
