2003 Ford Excursion Brake Booster Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the hydraulic brake booster on 2003 Ford Excursion?

  A: Start by switching off the engine before using a tool to discharge the accumulator by performing multiple brake pedal depresions. Begin by disconnecting the battery ground cable followed by separate removal of left side dual battery. Proceed to remove the air cleaner housing before disconnecting the electrical connector of the brake pressure switch. Unfasten the power steering hoses and eliminate the pressure from the brake master cylinder nuts. Move on to detach the power steering hose mounting bracket then the brake master cylinder before placing them aside. The installer should first remove the instrument panel steering column opening cover after removing the self-locking pin. Detach the brake pedal position (BPP) switch together with the brake booster push rod from the brake pedal pin. First remove power brake booster nuts then pull out the power brake booster from its position. Follow the reverse steps of removal while using new O-ring seals for power steering pressure fitting components and perform a Hydro-Boost system bleeding process. Team members should exercise careful accumulator handling by never grasping it by the accumulator while preventing any dropping incidents. The accumulator requires disposal only under specific conditions where you should avoid high heat exposure while making a 1.6-mm (1/16-inch) diameter hole at the end and wear safety glasses throughout this procedure.
