My tires got stuck in the snow last night. I had someone try to push me out and then I had a truck push me back into the driveway I first got stuck trying to get out of. Once I got back into the driveway, I could not turn my steering wheel at all. I filled my power steering fluid and gave it a moment then drove back to work. After I got there, the steering wheel would not move again. There is no whining of anything, the steering wheel will just not move, or barely move. What could it be?

Did you clear the snow away from steering linkages? Any steering linkages bent? You said you added power steering fluid, was it empty? Do you have a leak anywhere?

Any applicable trouble codes?
