No upper helm steering
GFC is right.
The # 1 suspect is low steering fluid.
Get some of the proper, correct for your system, fluid for your system & top off the upper reservoir & bleed the system & you will be back in full operation soon.
HOWEVER, the next question, where did the other fluid go ?
How long ago since you even checked the fluid level ? Just last month or last year ? or longer ? -- that will give you an indication of the size of your leak.
I don't know if you did any work on anything recently that may have affected this, like maybe knocked loose a fitting, bent & cracked a hose, steering ram seals worn, etc. Or not, -- but something is causing the fluid to get low, which is usually a leak, as the steering fluid does not evaporate like water does.
You may have a small leak, so close inspection of the whole system is now required. So after topping off & such, that is the next step. -- back to work.
Good luck.
