I've recently had a power master system failure.
Started out with an accessional brake light coming one when using the brakes, then disappearing after a couple of seconds. Also had a very slight 'feedback' in the brake pedal...almost felt like something was tapping on the brake pedal.
Recently I notice brake fluid leaking from the top of the reservoir on the engine side. I removed the cap and adjust the fluid level using the correct procedures for the power master system....I think I overfilled it on my last brake service.
After adjusting the fluid level and connecting everything, now my brake light is one steady with a very hard pedal. And I can not get the motor to turn on.
I've used the following link for troubleshooting

Fuse is good, circuitry is good, brake fluid is good. As per the trouble shooting, the motor seems good as well as the pressure switch.
***edit*** I don't know if the motor is good, but the relay in the motor test are good.
So, my question is...if it is the accumulator, then why wouldn't the motor work?
Thanks in advance.
