Got the car running today and brakes were okay as it was idling. I go to leave the house and the pedal gets hard. Drive it about five miles near the house on back roads, hard pedal all the time - barely stops. I get home and can hear it running when ign on, start doing some research. Was hoping accumulator. Go back out, pump pedal with ign off, turn on - can't hear it running, level doesn't change in reservoir. The fuse is good, the light isn't on. I've looked at the diagnosis chart and text on gnttype without much help. I'm afraid it's looking like the unit might be dead, but would like to go through every cheaper step first to look for a fix. Ideas?
I want to fix what I have or if the Powermaster unit needs to be replaced I would like to come to that conclusion after figuring out what's wrong...the answer isn't just "get rid of Powermaster" for me. I do not want to switch to vacuum brakes or another system.
