Power Brake Booster
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Lincoln LS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The power brake booster (2005):
- Is a dual diaphragm, vacuum assisted power brake booster.
- Reduces brake pedal pressure and travel distance.
- Is located on the bulkhead in the engine compartment, between the brake pedal and brake master cylinder (2140).
- Is divided into separate chambers by the diaphragm.
- Will not operate if vacuum is restricted or if any of the vacuum related power brake components fail.
- Is installed as an assembly.
If the power assist fails, the brake system will continue to operate with increased brake pedal effort.
