Question Power Steering Pump

I have a 2002 Toyota Camry, 3L Gasoline LE V6/SE V6/XLE V6 4DR Sedan FWD A4. It appears I need to replace my power steering pump - very difficult to turn and squeaking. Much better when it warms up. I've looked with a flashlight,; however, I cannot tell what type P/S pump it is - how do I ascertain this? CK

I'm pretty sure there that if you go to RockAuto or some place like that online, you can look up your car specifically through all the little drop down menus.

The pump has a relief valve that may stick closed.

Might try changing the PS fluid to clean out debris.
