Check the Aux fan relay, you can also test the elec fan by running it direct to make sure it turns on. I run mine direct with a switch mounted inside my jeep, living in Arizona it's always hot.

I also had that problem with power steering fluid squirting out when turning sharp, I have a 92 XJ, hoses get old & so do parts, I ended up just replacing the ps box & hoses, it was inexpensive & only took a couple hours & a couple beers.
