Modern cars use brake booster that are controlled by vacuum. If you have vacuum leak you could experience hard brake pedal, also another common reason for hard brake pedal could be bad vacuum pump.

    Thank you very much! It's about time a video for THIS ISSUE was made. This is a serious problem which if Not addressed can lead to a tragic incident. It has boggled me for a few years now. Thank God I have not had an accident, and I have been braking well. However, there is no power in the braking. I knew it had something to do with either booster or vacuum. Now I discover there's a vacuum pump to deal with..

    Unfortunately for me, my 2005 Town&Country doesn't have a brake vacuum pump, and I saddened by this discovery bcuz it would mean I will still have that hard pedal. On another note, changing the pcv value although proved to be difficult, And came out in pieces, it pushed me to replacing the value cover gaskets too. The brake pedal is still the same (no resolve there yet), but engine power did increase a good 30%. I was surprised at the acceleration. Still, the most important part is resolving the hard brake pedal. I doubt I will be replacing the booster or master cylinder. However, I do wonder if the ABS valve has something to do with it.

    nice thanks. Yesterday, while driving after resolving tyre puncture, after a few kilometer drive, on the highway, i heard a Popping sound, and thats all, the brake pedal became hard and I could not press it. I stopped it and slowly with hazard lamp condition, brought it to my garage and working with the mechanic. But, still, i am clueless what be reason. My car is FIAT Linea. any inputs for me pl. Thanks.

    It happened to me during heavy traffic constantly moving and breaking so when I stopped I turned off the car and then turned it on again and it worked properly again. Does this means that the system is going to fail soon or is it kind of "normal"??

    Check throttle body gasket. I think that's my issue asi removed it then re installed it to engine without putting on new gasket. Next day hard brakes.... cause of vaccum loss? Maybe. Cheers.

    I have a 2016 dodge caravan 3.6l v6 and I just changed the oil cooler out and am getting 2 problems. 1. the brakes don't seem to be engaging at idle speed but work fine once I get past the 10 mph range. 2. I am getting a tick on the mil and the esc and also the etc and brake warning light. Any ideas whats going wrong here? Only ticks after getting to running temperature except the brake warning light is on all the time now

    Hello, love your vids, I have a dodge journey 2.4 liter sxt. My problem is starting my car because my brake pedal becomes so hard it wont let me start my car, this problem is only at start up, brakes work great when car is running. Also I get a red lightning bolt with this problem.
    I replaced my throttle body and remember my brake feeling normal for start up. but since replacing my throttle body, I have had this issue return twice with the hard brake not allowing my car to start, resulting in tow on both occasions. Any thought on this anomoly.
