To check the operation of the amplifier, you need to:

  • Press the pedal with your foot, thus increasing the pressure in the brake system. In this case, the pedal remains in the depressed state.
  • Keeping your foot on the pedal, start the engine.
  • When the engine is started, the foot with the pedal begins to move to the floor of the VAZ body, which means that the vacuum amplifier is working and the entire system is in good order.

Note.
In another case, the leg with the pedal remains motionless, that is, in the upper depressed state, which means that there is a malfunction somewhere. First you need to check the vacuum hose at the connection points. Also check the non-return valve for leaks.

To check the operation of the check valve, you need to:

  • inspect the joints of the pipes;
  • feel these places with your hands;
  • tighten the clamps at the joints of the branch pipes;
  • on the inlet pipe fitting;
  • at the fitting of the non-return valve, in vacuum.

Then check the valve itself. To do this, remove the rubber tube from the vacuum, if necessary use a flat screwdriver.
Since the tube is removed very tightly.
Take a pre-prepared rubber pear-shaped syringe with a suitable diameter for the fitting:

  • Insert it;
  • Squeeze the syringe;
  • Squeeze air out of it.

Release the hand if it remains clenched, then the valve check is complete. That is, the valve fulfills its constructive purpose. If the syringe is filled with air, then the valve will have to be changed.
You can also check the operation of the valve with your mouth:

  • Blow out the air from your mouth, it should calmly pass into a vacuum;
  • Then suction, no air should be felt.

This completes the check of the brake booster, check valve.If no defects are found in the parts to be connected and the check valve is working properly, the vacuum is replaced.

  • then, in the passenger compartment, move the driver's seat to the extreme far position, as far as the runners allow;
  • go down under the steering column to the brake pedal.

Note: if necessary, due to lack of lighting, use a portable lamp with a protective torch.

  • using pliers, remove the retaining ring from the bushing that connects the pedal itself to the vacuum rod connector;
  • remove the rod, lower it to the floor of the body.

Note: The rod connector is a U-shaped plate with holes for attaching to the pedal bar.

  • return to the set vacuum;
  • now you have to carefully remove the brake master cylinder;

Note. This must be done in order not to add additional work on filling the brake fluid, pumping the entire brake system through all four calipers.

  • clean the threaded connection on the master cylinder bushings and use a metal brush to carry out this work.

Note. Carefully unscrew the nuts, turning back and forth several times so as not to break the threads on the screws. Remove the nuts from the screws, and also remove the washers that are in a compressed state.

To facilitate the work, use a flat screwdriver to go over the cylinder body and slightly, as carefully as possible, free them from sticking.

Note: if the nuts cannot be loosened, you need to drop a few drops of acetic acid 70% on them, wait 30 minutes, clean the thread with a wire brush and repeat unscrewing.

After removing the washers, it is necessary to proceed with the removal of the brake master cylinder. It will be difficult to remove.
Therefore, it is necessary to be careful not to break, not to bend the brake pipes too much, to apply force sharply, but not too much. It is necessary to remove the brake cylinder forward, without deviations to the side.
The final final step is the removal of the vacuum. It is attached to the bulkhead with a bracket.

  • The bracket is mounted on two studs, clean the threads as described above.
  • Unscrew the nuts, remove the vacuum together with the bracket.

Then, after removal, unscrew the two blind bolts from the vacuum. Move it aside.
Carefully screw the new vacuum onto the bracket. Reassemble in reverse order.
The price of a vacuum brake booster is 2500 rubles. When choosing it, you should pay attention to the packaging.
The packaging of the guaranteed manufacturer must be made of corrugated cardboard.

  • manufacturer's name;
  • batch number;
  • Release date;
  • the article must also be indicated: 2108-3510010ТМ.

Since there is a fake on the market. Therefore, you need to buy from trusted sellers, in stores that have been able to establish themselves on the positive side.
When doing work with your own hands, you need to carefully watch the video. The most important thing will be to remember the order of the repair work.
For a better perception, take a photo at the place of repair. In advance, at home, number them in order. Performing work in turn, shift the photo down.
Do not be lazy to do this, since during assembly you can check the sequence of the correct execution of the process. It also does not hurt to read the instructions for performing car repairs in order to avoid unexpected situations.

Welcome!
Vacuum brake booster - it is attached to the bracket to the engine shield (This is a shield that separates the engine compartment and the car interior) and a master brake cylinder is installed in it, which, by the way, also needs to be replaced from time to time (When this cylinder wears out, a problem begins with the brakes, the car may not brake, only two of all four available wheels can brake, the brake fluid can still run out quickly and the cylinder itself can leak), thanks to this cylinder and thanks to the vacuum booster, braking occurs on modern cars, by the way, the vacuum cleaner works thanks to the intake manifold ( On the injectors, at the expense of the receiver) and therefore when the engine is started the brakes are soft and very easy to press on them, and when you turn it off, the air pressure in the intake manifold disappears and the pedal becomes much (perceptibly) heavy.

Note!
This brake booster can be replaced by any person who had at least some experience in car repair, and to replace it, you will need a small, but still rare set of tools that not all people will meet, namely: Pliers will be needed, a crank and to it has cap heads (if there is an extension cord, then it is better for them to stock up), if there is no crank, then all the keys that you have take, thanks to caps and wrenches, it can also be removed, but it will not be very convenient!

Summary:

Where is the vacuum brake booster located?
In the engine compartment, it is located on the engine shield (Indicated by a red arrow), and behind the engine shield, the interior of the car immediately follows, in the interior it will be possible to find a vacuum brake booster pusher, which is connected to the brake pedal (When removing the amplifier, this pusher from the pedal you will have to disconnect) and therefore the approximate location of the brake booster from the passenger compartment, according to this pusher, it is very easy to determine when you are going to remove the amplifier, you will immediately understand which pusher we are talking about.

When do you need to change the vacuum brake booster?
If the brake booster malfunctions, either the brakes will disappear, or the engine will start to work unevenly at idle, in fact there are a lot of symptoms, because each car always detects a brake booster malfunction in different ways, on some machine, which is when the engine is turned off, what when running, the pedal will be pressed with one effort, for some, when you press the pedal, idle will be disrupted and the car will start to stall, but the performance check is always the same, on a muffled engine, you need to press the brake pedal 5-6 times , the last time you need to leave the pedal pressed and start the engine of the car, and as soon as it starts, the pedal must fail a little, if everything is so, then the amplifier is working properly.

Note!
You can get acquainted with all the malfunctions of the vacuum brake booster, you can in the video clip, which is posted just below, it shows the whole example on a classic car, but the point is that this booster works identically on all cars (they are removed only in different ways, but they all have the same principle of operation) and therefore if you have front-wheel drive, and the video talks about rear-wheel drive in general, then do not pay special attention to this, because, as we have already said, the principle of operation of a vacuum amplifier is the same on all machines!
