What is the inspection method for a vacuum booster?
1 Answers
Vacuum booster inspection method is as follows: 1. Turn off the engine, then press the brake pedal several times with force to eliminate the vacuum inside the vacuum booster; 2. Press the brake pedal with appropriate force and keep the pedal in the braking position, then start the engine; 3. If you feel the brake pedal position drops slightly, it indicates the vacuum booster is functioning normally. Otherwise, check the vacuum lines or the vacuum booster. The vacuum booster is a component that utilizes vacuum (negative pressure) to amplify the force applied by the driver on the pedal. It is generally located between the brake pedal and the master cylinder. For ease of installation, it is usually integrated with the master cylinder as a single unit, with part of the master cylinder extending into the vacuum booster housing.
