BRAKE BOOSTER OPERATING TEST
For simple checking of the brake booster operation, carry out the following tests
1. Run the engine for one or two minutes, and then stop it. If the pedal depresses fully the first time but gradually
becomes higher when depressed succeeding times, the booster is operating properly, if the pedal height remains
unchanged, thebooster is inoperative.
Check brake operation by applying the brakes during a test drive. If the brakes do not
work properly, check the brake booster. Replace the brake booster as an assembly if it
does not work properly or if there are signs of leakage.
a. Check brake operation by applying the brakes. Look for damage or signs of fluid
leakage. Replace the master cylinder as an assembly if the pedal does not work
properly or if there is damage or signs of fluid leakage.
b. Check for a difference in brake pedal stroke between quick and slow brake
applications. Replace the master cylinder if there is a difference in pedal stroke.
Look for damage or signs of fluid leakage. Replace the brake hose with a new one if it
is damaged or leaking.
Check brake operation by applying the brakes.
Look for damage or signs of fluid leakage. If the pedal does not work properly, the
brakes drag, or there is damage or signs of fluid leakage, disassemble and inspect the
brake caliper. Replace the boots and seals with new ones whenever the brake caliper
is disassembled.
