Look and if you have the hydroboost system on your vehicle..If so the power steering pump control the brake assit and the power steering..Then if you have that system,, check the power steering fluid level ..If its not low then you might have a bad powersteering pump..The hydroboost is located right behind the master cylinder..It has hoses coming off of it and circles back around to the pump..
make sure it has power steering fluid in it see if it has a leak. those have hydroboost brake assist - which is power assist from the steering pump. If the hydroboost goes out, no power steering.
This sounds like the hydroboost unit is leaking.behind the master cylinderThe braking system on this using the power steering pump to provide power assisted brakes instead of a brake booster. The hydroboost unit most likely needs replaced.
The brakes and the Power Steering are two different systems and two different problems. The brake problem is going to be a caliper or master cylinder issue which maybe a Vacuum issue if the Power Booster hose is leaking or disconnected from the master cylinder. The power steering is going to be low fluid in the power steering pump, faulty power steering pump (Obvious if you were hearing a whine that got louder as you turned the wheels, or the Power assist piston that connects to the tie rods.
try this , take out the THROTTLE BODY or what it looks like a carburator , if you havent clean this part in the past , it acumulates carbon clogging the air lines , your gonna need a new gasket , some clean rags and a can of carb cleaner . good luck

you have to bleed the power steering system. you have someone turn the wheels to the left while you watch the power steering fluid level adding as needed. than repeat turning the wheels to the right. and repeat until the noise seems to get quieter and you don't have to ad any more fluid.
