Default Power Steering Issues

I am becoming more and more puzzled by my X300 and could use some help diagnosing.

The powersteering is non-existent at idle/stopped.

I can hear the brown relay under the passenger side clicking when the car is running and power steering called upon(don't ask me when in that process it has been a moment).
I just got done rebuilding the power steering pump with no success, but nothing looked bad in the unit as I pulled it apart.
The high pressure hose has been replaced and it doesn't seem like there are any other leaks.
The inside of the rack boots were dry last time I checked.

A friend mentioned a servotronic relay in the car that I can't seem to find.

What do I look at next, I am open to anything.

See page 19

THE VARIABLE SPEED MODULE WILL BE AHEAD OF RELAY # 2 WHICH IF GOT GOLD PLATED FRONT WINDSHEILD HEAT LIKE ON AIRCRAFT AND IS NOT FOUND ON MOST EXAMPLES

Something about a volvo module works

There should be a fuse involved
