1996 CHRYSLER VOYAGER Service Manual

CAUTION: When installing the primary and second-
ary brake tubes on master cylinder, be sure brake
tubes do not contact any other components within
the vehicle and that there is slack in the flexible
sections of the tubes. This is required due to the
movement between the ABS hydraulic control mod-
ule (HCU) and the master cylinder, when the vehicle
is in motion.
(4) Connect the primary and secondary brake
tubes to master cylinder primary and secondary
ports (Fig. 99). Brake tubes must be held securely
when tightened to control orientation of flex section.
Then fully tighten the tube nuts to a torque of 17
N´m (145 in. lbs.).
(5) Install the vehicle wiring harness connector, on
the brake fluid level sensor in the master cylinder
brake fluid reservoir (Fig. 98).
(6) Install filler tube into the master cylinder fluid
reservoir (Fig. 97).
VACUUM BOOSTER 2.4 LITER ENGINE
REMOVE
CAUTION: Reserve vacuum in the vacuum booster
must be pumped down (removed) before removing
master cylinder from vacuum booster. This is nec-
essary to prevent the vacuum booster from sucking
in any contamination as the master cylinder is
removed. This can be done simply by pumping the
brake pedal, with the vehicle's engine not running,
until a firm feeling brake pedal is achieved.
(1) With engine not running, pump brake pedal
until a firm pedal is achieved (4-5 strokes).
(2) Remove both battery cables from battery.
(3) Remove the battery thermal guard and the bat-
tery from the battery tray.
(4) Remove the air inlet resonator and hoses as an
assembly from the throttle body and air cleaner
housing (Fig. 104)
(5) If vehicle is equipped with speed control,
unplug wiring harness connector from the speed con-
trol servo. Then disconnect vacuum lines from the
speed control servo and vacuum reservoir on battery
tray.
(6) Remove bolt attaching the speed control servo
bracket to the battery tray. Slide the bracket forward
to unhook it from the battery tray and remove.
(7) Remove the 2 bolts and the nut (Fig. 105)
attaching the battery tray to the body.
(8) Remove wiring harness connector from brake
fluid level sensor in master cylinder fluid reservoir
(Fig. 106).
(9) Clean the area where the master cylinder
assembly attaches to the power brake booster. Useonly a solvent such as Mopar Brake Parts Cleaner or
an equivalent.
(10) Remove clip attaching drain hose for wiper
module to brake tube at master cylinder. Remove

drain hose (Fig. 107) from wiper module. Remove the
2 nuts attaching the master cylinder to the vacuum
booster (Fig. 107).
NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the brake
tubes from the master cylinder when removing the
master cylinder from the vacuum booster.
(11) Remove the master cylinder and brake tubes
as an assembly from the vacuum booster. When mas-
ter cylinder is removed, lay it out of the way on top
of the left motor mount
(12) Disconnect vacuum hose from check valve
located on vacuum booster.DO NOT REMOVE
CHECK VALVE FROM POWER BRAKE
BOOSTER.
(13) Locate the vacuum booster input rod to brake
pedal attachment under instrument panel. Position a
small screwdriver between the center tang on the
vacuum booster input rod to brake pedal pin retain-
ing clip (Fig. 108).(14) Rotate screwdriver enough to allow retaining
clip center tang to pass over end of brake pedal pin.
Then pull retaining clip off brake pedal pin.Discard
retaining clip. It is not to be reused. Replace
only with a new retaining clip when assembled.
(15) Remove the 4 nuts attaching the vacuum
booster to the dash panel. Nuts are accessible from
under dash panel in area of the steering column and
pedal bracket assembly.
(16) From outside the vehicle, slide vacuum
booster forward until its mounting studs clear dash
panel. Then tilt the booster up and toward the center
of vehicle to remove.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to disassemble the vac-
uum booster it is to be serviced ONLY as a com-
plete assembly.
INSTALL
CAUTION: When installing the vacuum booster in
the vehicle be sure the heater hoses do not become
trapped between the booster and the dash panel of
the vehicle.
(1) Position vacuum booster onto dash panel using
the reverse procedure for its removal.
(2) Install the 4 mounting nuts for the vacuum
booster. Tighten the 4 mounting nuts to a torque of
29 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
(3) Using lubriplate, or an equivalent, coat the sur-
face of the brake pedal pin where it contacts the vac-
uum booster input rod.
CAUTION: When installing the brake pedal pin on
the vacuum booster input rod, do not re-use the old
retaining clip.
(4) Connect the vacuum booster input rod on the
brake pedal pin and install aNEWretaining clip
(Fig. 109).
(5) Connect the vacuum hose on the check valve in
the vacuum booster.
CAUTION: The master cylinder is used to create
the seal for holding vacuum in the vacuum booster.
The vacuum seal on the master cylinder MUST be
replaced with a NEW seal whenever the master cyl-
inder is removed from the vacuum booster.
CAUTION: When removing the vacuum seal from
the master cylinder do not use a sharp tool.
(6) Using a soft tool such as a trim stick, remove
the vacuum seal from the master cylinder mounting
flange.

(7) Install aNEWvacuum seal on mounting flange
of master cylinder (Fig. 110).
(8) Position master cylinder on studs of vacuum
booster aligning push rod on vacuum booster with
master cylinder piston.
(9) Install the 2 nuts (Fig. 107) mounting the mas-
ter cylinder to the vacuum booster. Tighten the
mounting nuts to a torque of 25 N´m (225 in. lbs.).
(10) Install the wiper module drain hose (Fig. 107)
on the wiper module. Install the tie strap attaching
the wiper module drain hose to the brake tube at the
master cylinder.Tie strap should be loosely tight-
ened so as not to collapse the wiper module
drain hose.
(11) Install the wiring harness connector on the
brake fluid level sensor in the master cylinder fluid
reservoir (Fig. 106).
