Pinpoint Test V : P050F:00: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

The vacuum pump is mechanically driven by the camshaft. The ABS module uses a sensor mounted on the brake booster to monitor the vacuum. A vacuum pump failure or a leak in the vacuum hoses, check valve, seals, brake booster or front hublock IWE can all cause insufficient vacuum for brake booster operation.
