1. Start the engine and stop it after 1-2 minutes. Press the brake pedal several times with normal force. If the first stroke of the pedal is long and the second stroke is shorter than the first stroke, this indicates normal operation of the brake booster. If the pedal height does not change, the brake booster is damaged.
2. With the engine off, press the brake pedal several times. Start the engine. If the brake pedal moves down immediately after the engine starts, this indicates that the brake booster is working properly. If the pedal height does not change, the brake booster is damaged.
3. Start the engine. Press the brake pedal with normal force. Stop the engine. Slowly press the brake pedal and hold it for 30 seconds. If the pedal height does not change, the brake booster is working normally.
Otherwise, check the one-way vacuum valve or vacuum hose for damage and make sure they are securely fastened.
