VACUUM SENSOR ASSEMBLY ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION


  1. INSPECT VACUUM SENSOR ASSEMBLY


    1. Warm up the engine.

    2. Turn the ignition switch off.

    3. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    4. Start the engine.

    5. Turn the GTS on.

    6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Stop and Start / Data List / Brake Boost Pressure.

    7. Compare the "Brake Boost Pressure" values before and after the brake pedal was depressed 5 times.

      Standard
      Internal pressure changes by 20 kPa (150 mmHg, 5.91 in.Hg) or more.

      Tech Tips


      • Standard atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa (758 mmHg, 29.8 in.Hg).

      • For every 100 m (328 ft.) increase in altitude, atmospheric pressure drops by 1 kPa (8 mmHg, 0.295 in.Hg).

      • Atmospheric pressure varies with weather.
