BRAKE SERVICE PROCEDURES FOR 1990 Chevrolet Cavalier AUTOMOBILES
Includes anti-lock brakes, disc, drum, power and hydraulic brake services diagnostics and procedures for domestic and imported 1990 Chevrolet Cavalier cars and light trucks from 1990+.
POWER BRAKE UNITS, GENERAL MOTORS -> GENERAL SERVICE -> AIR METHOD -> Delco-Moraine Type -> GAUGE METHOD -> POWER BOOSTER REPLACE -> PRECAUTIONS -> PUSHROD ADJUSTMENT -> Single Diaphragm Type
Vehicle: 1990 Chevrolet Cavalier VL 2.2 L4 GAS
Two basic types of power assist mechanisms are used: vacuum assist diaphragm assemblies, which use engine vacuum or, in some cases vacuum pressure developed by an external vacuum pump. The second type is a hydraulic pressure assist mechanism, which use pressure developed by an external pump (usually the power steering pump). Both systems act to increase the force exerted on the master cylinder piston by the operator. This in turn increases the hydraulic pressure delivered to the wheel cylinders, while decreasing driver effort necessary to obtain acceptable stopping performance.

There are four basic types of brake warning lamp switches as shown,Figs. through . When a pressure differential occurs between the front and rear brake systems, the valves will shuttle toward the side with the low pressure.
In the switch shown inFig. , movement of the differential valve forces the switch plunger upward over the tapered shoulder of the valve to close the switch contacts and light the dual brake warning lamp, signaling a brake system failure.
