• Q: How to remove the Vacuum Brake Booster on 2009 Scion tC?

  A: The first step for Vacuum Brake Booster removal requires draining brake fluid followed by immediate washing of contaminated paint surfaces with fluid. First detach the front wiper arm head cap from its position after which remove the windshield wiper arm assemblies and blades from both left and right sides of the vehicle. You must remove the hood before taking away the left side cowl top seal and cowl top ventilator louver. Remove the windshield wiper motor and link together with the outer cowl top panel sub-assembly followed by the No. 1 cowl water extract hose. The technician should then remove the left lower cowl body mounting bracket and air cleaner cap sub-assembly and brake master cylinder sub-assembly. After separating the brake push rod clevis from the brake master cylinder disconnect the front left wheel followed by removing Special Service Tool 09023-00101 from the No. 5 front brake tube. Take off the brake tube clamps and unlock the three tubes for subsequent removal of the clamps themselves. The brake booster assembly removal process begins by loosening the clevis lock nut followed by clevis detachment from the brake booster then using a clip to disconnect the vacuum hose and completing the removal by unscrewing four nuts from the brake booster. First remove the check valve as well as the grommet from the brake booster while extracting the brake booster gasket.
