Brake Booster - Hydro-Boost®

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup, 2012 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2012 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2012 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Hydro-Boost® power brake actuation system consists of the following components:

The Hydro-Boost® brake booster is a hydraulically operated brake booster powered by the power steering pump. The power steering pump provides the fluid pressure to operate both the power brake booster and the power steering gear.

A Hydro-Boost® reserve system (accumulator) stores sufficient fluid under pressure to provide at least 2 power-assisted brake applications in the event the power steering pump fluid flow is interrupted.

The brakes can also be applied manually if the reserve system is depleted.
