What is a brake booster (power brake booster)?
- The brake booster is a vacuum-assisted device in the braking system that amplifies the force your foot applies to the brake pedal.
- It sits between the brake pedal (via a push rod) and the master cylinder.
- When you press the brake pedal, the booster helps reduce the effort needed by using vacuum from the engine (or a vacuum pump) to assist pushing the master cylinder piston.
- This makes braking easier and helps achieve stronger braking force with less pedal pressure.
