How to service the vacuum brake booster on Ford Explorer?

The first step in servicing the vacuum brake booster requires users to disconnect the brake booster check valve to remove residual vacuum before removing the master cylinder as an untimely master cylinder seal could be sucked into the brake booster. Service technicians need to detach the brake master cylinder as their next step. Any attempt to skip the reinstallation of brake booster solenoid electrical connector will result in diagnostic trouble code activation during running conditions and with key-on status. The brake booster solenoid electrical connector needs disconnecting before removing the booster push rod clevis locking pin as a single-use item so install a new locking pin for reinstallation. Remove the brake booster rod from its position at the brake pedal before placing it aside. Use new nuts to install the brake booster assembly after removing all its four nuts and the booster. After installation finish the work by following the reverse procedure while tightening the nuts to 22 Nm.

This is a Ford Explorer Brake Booster part that helps to minimize the force that one has to apply on the brake pedal. It uses a vacuum chamber to increase hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder, which in any case increases force exerted by the driver when using the brake pedal. There are two main types of boosters used in Explorer vehicles: There are two types of boosters namely vacuum-operated boosters and hydraulic boosters. Vacuum boosters work under comparing the vacuum pressure on the engine side with the atmospheric pressure whereas hydraulic boosters work under the fluid pressure to help the brake pedal. These boosters are usually efficient, although they sometimes might stop working, and need either repair, or replacement. Also, for the enthusiasts, Ford has several performance brake boosters and power brake conversion kits, which are great for a car's braking system upgrade.
