Both the Power Steering pump and the brake booster operate hydraulically. Putting brake fluid in the power steering pump will not harm it since brake fluid is a light oil only with different properties. I would only worry if it were the other way around and you put power steering fluid in the brake master cylinder. Power steering fluid doesn't have the heat range or density of brake fluid.

Abs and brake light on ram 1500 4x4 2000?

I'm assuming that your problem is that your ABS and or brake light is on in your Ram 1500? If that's the case you may have a problem with your ABS or your brake system as a whole. Check your brake fluid (being careful not to touch it with your bare hands, brake fluid is toxic), if it's low, get it filled. If the brake fluid isn't the problem, take your Ram to a mechanic and have the brakes inspected. You'll want to do this sooner rather than later as your brakes are obviously a critical component of your vehicle. check the sensor on the rear differential, I had the same problem, it takes about 15 minutes to install

Why does the interior brake light blink?

could be a problem with the sesor in the emergency brake. a bad connection there could cause the light to blink with the vibration of the car running On some cars, the brake warning light will blink if the parking brake is set, and you drive... it could be a failed parking brake switch, assuming the brake is not applied. It is supposed to blink to get your attention. One car that does this is the Mitsubishi Starion, there are probably some others, too.

I had a problem with the shift lock and the problem ended up being the brake solenoid. This is a brake switch that in forms the transmission that you have your foot on the brake. If you don't heat a click when you push on the brake, I would have that checked.
