2008 Ford F350 diesel crew power steering locks up & breaks dont work while driving for short moments

Power steering fluid is full? Sounds like it might be a power steering pump. It has hydroboost brakes that are controlled by the Power steering.

no work no heat. replace the thermostat and I think
that will warm things up. Hope this helps.
Good luck.

F350 super duty power stroke diesel loss of power steering when standing still

Power steering pump is weak. If a hydraulic gauge were placed on the pump, you would find it only able to produce about 200-400 psi at an idle. PS requires up to 1500psi. A new pump would produce 1500psi at an idle so replace the pump and you will be fine. By revving up the motor you are able to make the pump put out more psi. The pump is defective internally. Get a good one from the junkyard. Most PS pumps last the life of the vehicle.
