Power Brake Booster: Removal

  1. Disconnect vacuum hose from check valve on booster. Remove 2 nuts securing master cylinder to booster. Move combination valve bracket and master cylinder forward to clear studs on booster. DO NOT move more than necessary or brake lines may be damaged.
  2. Remove left sound insulator from below instrument panel. Working in passenger compartment, remove 4 nuts securing booster to firewall. Separate brake pedal from booster push rod. Remove Daytime Running Lights (DRL) diode assembly (if equipped). Remove booster and gasket.
WARNING: Ensure accelerator and cruise control cables do not get caught between booster and firewall during installation. If cables become damaged or pinched, they MUST be replaced to prevent accelerator pedal from binding. Failure to do this could result in possible personal injury.
