Car cuts off when turning right or left while AC running

This goes with my other question regarding the ac causing the car to cut off. The beginning of the month of june my step-father had changed my wires because when I got a tune-up down, they said that the wires needs to be changed. So he did a minor tune-up as well and even changed the wires. But after that was down, it still do the same thing where it causes my car to cut off when I make a turn. It's not time for the tune-up yet. Do I just need to go get my ac checked or what. We all thought that it would be the wires but thats not it. Or maybe I just need to get a major tune up down.

It sounds like either the power steering pump or the AC pump is bad. Check the belt for signs of being dragged across the pulleys. Take off the belt and move each by hand, not just spinning it but move it up and down as well.
You will notice that one will be hard to turn or will not turn at all that is the one giving you the problem.
Thanks
