The power steering system is very simple check all of these and you will find it. the pump has a high pressure line and a low/ return line. check for leaks in the line fill-up with fluid with some ne inside turning steering when looking for leaks if none in line check rack and pinnion/gear box. Its just (4) components to check Pump, reservoir, Lines(pressureline/ return line) rack and pinion. Good Luck
I bet you have solved this problem by now, but I have an '86 cressida, and I just went though I bunch of repairs having to do with my power steering. The pump would be the problem if you put fluid in and nothing changes before it has leaked out. I also had to replace th pinnion/gear box. I also have to replace the toe, which I haven't done yet, but will be done soon. all together the cost was $880 not including the toe. I bought the car for $1000 so I almost didn't get anything fixed, but Cressida's are good cars, and I hope this will help it last a few more years. Hope this helped if you haven't had it fixed yet. I would like to know what was wrong with yours though, I kind of feel I was scammed.

I have a 1992 Toyota MR2, one evening I cam out to go get a movie, went to start the car and all that happened was the starter started clicking rapidly. I turned the ignition switch off and the starter kept clicking away. While it was clicking I noticed the spedo smoking so I rushed to disconnect the battery. When I finally disconnected the battery I looked up and saw smoke rolling out from the engine compartment. The car did not start on fire luckily. When the car cooled I started T-shooting and found that the smoke from the mid engine compartment came from the E-brake cable burning up. I have replaced the starter, the E-brake cable the gauge cluster, and the ignition switch. Checked every solenoid and switch involved with the starter circuit. Everything checks out fine. There was an after market security system installed, I have since then removed it. I have not reinstalled the new gauge cluster in fear that this might happen again. All the electrical works, lights, stereo, antenna, etc, etc, etc but when I turn the ignition switch to start with the clutch pedal fully depressed the same problem occurs.
