My steering assist is only assisting for about a quarter of a turn of the steering wheel then it's like no assist at all. Anyone else ever have this issue or any suggestions?

Is it going into relief?

Nope, I figured it out. I have a backhoe so it has extra power beyond hydro lines installed. The rear hydro coupling wasn't aligned so it was restricting flow and it affected the steering. Uncoupled and recouped and all is back to normal. Thank you for your response.
