Dodge Caravan Brake Booster
The Brake Booster on Dodge Caravan automobiles plays an important role in the booster which helps improve braking power to half or less of the driver's input force. Located between the brake pedal and the MC the Brake Booster applies either vacuum or hydraulic action to increase the force applied at the brake. Vacuum operated boosters work by the difference between engine vacuum and atmospheric pressure and hydraulic boosters work on the pressure exerted by the fluid available in the power steering pump or an electric motor. Through the years, Dodge Caravan models have mainly used vacuum power boosters for the brakes, which have been very dependable, although not beyond the usual breakdowns here and there. These boosters are available in single or dual diaphragm kind and with varying diameters to determine the level of power assist. If you want the optimal performance, especially when using discs, it is vital that you choose the right diameter and angle the diaphragms at as well. In a nutshell, the Brake Booster greatly improves driving in Dodge Caravan vehicles making the braking efforts much more comfortable and effective.

Dodge Caravan Brake Booster Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install Brake Booster on Dodge Caravan?A: To perform an operating check on the brake system, start by depressing the pedal and starting the engine; a slight pedal depression is normal. Depress the brake pedal multiple times with the engine running and ensure there's no change in pedal reserve distance. For an airtightness check, start the engine and turn it off after a minute or two, then depress the brake pedal slowly. If the pedal initially goes down farther but gradually rises with subsequent depressions, the booster is airtight. Additionally, depress the brake pedal while the engine is running, then stop the engine while holding the pedal down; if there's no change in pedal reserve travel after 30 seconds, the booster is airtight. As for removal, the power brake booster unit doesn't require special maintenance and should never be disassembled; if an issue arises, it must be replaced. To start, remove vacuum from the booster by pumping the pedal with the engine off until it feels firm. Then, remove the battery and battery tray, and if applicable, detach the cruise control servo unit bracket. Remove the wiper motor and linkage assembly, and clean the area where the master cylinder attaches to the booster. Detach the master cylinder from the booster while keeping it supported and disconnect the vacuum hose from the check valve on the outside of the booster. Remove the knee bolster from the driver's side of the instrument panel. Under the dash, disconnect the brake pedal pushrod and replace the retaining clip for safety. Remove the nuts securing the booster to the firewall, and from the engine compartment, withdraw the booster unit. To install the booster, position it on the firewall and tighten the retaining nuts. Reconnect the brake pedal to the booster pushrod with a new retainer clip, and perform the remaining installation steps in reverse, ensuring a new vacuum seal is installed on the master cylinder before reattaching it to the booster. Finally, test the brake system's operation carefully before normal vehicle operation.
