Hyundai Genesis: Brake System / Brake Booster Repair procedures

Brake Booster Operating Test
For simply checking the brake booster operation, perform the following tests.
1.
Run the engine for one or two minutes, and then stop it.Depress the pedal several times, and if the pedal stroke gradually decreases, the brake booster operates properly. If there is no change, the booster is faulty.

2.
With the engine stopped, step on the brake pedal several times.
Then step on the brake pedal and start the engine. If the pedal moves downward slightly, the booster is in good condition. If there is no change, the booster is inoperative.

3.
With the engine running, step on the brake pedal and then stop the engine.Hold the pedal depressed for 30 seconds. If the pedal height does not change, the booster is in good condition, if the pedal rises, the booster is inoperative.
If the three tests mentioned above result in good condition, the booster performance can be determined as good.
Even if one of the three tests mentioned above is not in good condition, check the check valve, vacuum hose and booster for malfunction.
