Power Steering Fluid Change Issues

[IMJ]

Today was a big fluid change and clean day - motor oil, trans oil, diff and power steering. I'm having some issues with the power steering now however, and I think it's coming from air in the system.

Basically I'm experiencing steering wheel chatter or hiccups when steering the car at low speeds, or during braking. I'm working under the assumption that there is air in the Power Steering system, but I can't find any kind of bleeder valve at the lines.

Does anyone have any input regarding how I can bleed the Power Steering system after changing out the old fluid? I have a 2012. When I changed the fluid, I drained the system remnants by disconnecting the PS line at the cooler and running the remaining fluid out, so essentially all of (more like 99%) of the fluid in the system is new.

Thank you for everyone's input helping me clear this up.

Did you put in the correct power steering fluid? There are no bleeders on this system. The way I like to fill this system after a drain fill the resivoure till it reads full on cold. Go have a beer. After beer, top off resivoure full on cold, put cap on, start car remove cap top off resivoure till it shows full on hot. Put cap on slowly move wheel in one direction till it hit wheel stop. Remove cap and top off again. Put cap back on and rotate wheel opposite direction till stop. Remove cap, top off resivoure, put cap back on cycle steering lock to lock remove cap top off. Then cycle steering lock to lock 6 times. Remove cap top off resivoure til the botom of hot put cap on and take for a drive. While driving at stop signs go lock to lock. When you get home top off resivoure to maximum hot.
This should get the air out.
