• Q: How to remove the Vacuum Brake Booster on 2009 Toyota Tundra?

  A: The first step for removing the Vacuum Brake Booster begins with disconnecting the negative battery terminal cable while waiting at least 90 seconds after turning off the ignition switch as the navigation system records memory and sets its operational preferences. The brake fluid draining process begins by thoroughly washing off fluid that reaches painted surfaces. Extract the brake master cylinder sub-assembly before detached vacuum hose assembly by moving the clip and removing the hose from its check valve location. Separate both brake booster connectors from their attachment positions at the brake booster. To access the front door scuff plates on Regular Cab models you must first remove the scuff plate on the LH door but Double Cab and CrewMax models will need the removal of both LH door scuff plates. First remove the cowl side trim board LH then proceed to remove the lower instrument panel finish panel sub-assembly LH. Start by removing the No. 1 instrument panel safety pad insert before taking out the push rod pin by unclipping it. The repair procedure ends with brake booster assembly removal starting from nut separation and pulling out the booster while removing the gasket and untightening the lock nut and disconnecting the clevis before the brake vacuum check valve assembly.
