The pas on these is electric/hydraulic,so it is possible that the electric pump stops working after a while for some reason,or it could be a hydraulic fault. A diagnostic check may give some info as to the failure.

I've had this on my 2003 Pug 307. I cured it by making sure the PS fluid reservoir was filled beyond the max mark and also disconnected the electrical connector and gave it a thorough cleaning with electrical contact cleaner. The connection was dirty after ten years of no cleaning or maintenance.

Then put it back together and sealed it with this stuff:

A year and a half later, not had a single problem.
