Brake fluid is only for brakes, it will do damage to the seals in the power steering. Power steering should be power steering fluid or dextron II or III automatic trans mission fluid. If really in a pinch hydraulic oil could maybe be used for power steering, I have seen race cars use it to keep the foaming down and it worked very well.

Never brake fluid and nothing else goes in brake master cylinder.

Put power steering fluid or automatic transmission fluid (dextron)

SOURCE: Brake fluid

on your 99 Plymouth u should not have to add fluid unless it's time to replace brakes. But on the driver side under the hood u will find a yellow cap that will say dot 3 fluid only. make sure you are using the proper fluid, you can find that at your local auto parts store. Do not fill this all the way to the top.

SOURCE: 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager instrument cluster problem

There has been issues with the solder joints on the PIN connection to the gauge cluster. The issue being that over time thru vibration and such one of these solder joints will fail (happened on or 1999) you can repair this though. You will have to remove all of the trim from around the driver's side dash board, this will include the trim towards the center of the dash. Once these pieces are remove you'll need to remove the gauge panel (I believe (4) allen head screws) carefully bring the panel and release the wire clip from it. Looking at the back of the panel, where the plug was, carefully with plenty of light look for one of the pins to have a failed solder joint. It will be very faint however the failed joint will be a fine dark line around the pin. To correct use a small soldering iron and reheat this solder until it wants to flow, let it cool and reassemble.
As I fore mentioned I had the exact same issue as you are describing, our is a 99. The most tricky part is the dash, take your time with it.
I hope this may have assited you,
Tom
