Brake Booster - Vacuum: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Ford Pickup, 2007 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2007 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2007 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The vacuum-type power brake booster:
- is a dual diaphragm, vacuum-assisted power brake booster.
- reduces brake pedal force.
- is located on the LH side of the bulkhead in the engine compartment, between the brake pedal and the brake master cylinder.
- is divided into separate chambers by the diaphragms.
- will not operate if the 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 continues to operate with increased brake pedal effort.
