Answer

Basically, the pump supplies pressure to the system and causes the fluid to flow. A spool valve in the rack/Box redirects the flow of oil to either the left of the right of the piston on the steering shaft or box. Any excess oil is returned to the reservoir. Should the wheels be in the full lock position, a relief valve in the pump will release and the fluid will bypass in the pump internally.
