Operation Check

  1. While the engine is OFF, depress the brake pedal several times applying the same pedal force, to check for a change in pedal height.

  2. With brake pedal depressed, start the engine.
  3. As the engine starts, the brake pedal should move slowly toward floor. If the pedal height is not changed, the brake booster is faulty.
NOTE: If faulty, check correctly with gauge.
