Brake Booster: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Ford Ranger. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The power brake booster:

is a dual diaphragm, vacuum-assisted power brake booster.
is located on the LH side of the bulkhead in the engine compartment, between the brake pedal and brake master cylinder.
is divided into separate chambers by a stationary center plate.
will not operate if vacuum is restricted or if any of the vacuum-related power brake components fail.
is installed new as an assembly.

If the power assist fails, the brake system will continue to operate with increased brake pedal effort.
