Vehicle: 1990 GMC Jimmy 6.2 V8 DIESEL
In order to properly service power brake systems, a thorough understanding of the various power assist systems is necessary. These systems provide a mechanical assist, acting to increase the force applied to the master cylinder piston by the driver while decreasing the effort necessary to obtain acceptable stopping performance. Two basic types of power assist mechanisms are used: vacuum assist diaphragm assemblies which use engine vacuum and in some cases vacuum from an external vacuum pump, and hydraulic assist assemblies which use hydraulic pressure developed by an external pump (...

READING TROUBLE CODES
Trouble codes are accessed by connecting a jumper wire between terminals A and H of the underdash ALDL connector and observing the flashes of the brake warning lamp. Note the following when performing the Diagnostic Circuit Check to access trouble codes.
- When the terminals are jumped, count the number of short flashes starting from the initial long flash and including the long flash in the count.
- The count sequence will repeat as long as the ALDL connector terminals are jumped with the ignition on.

HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEMS, GENERAL MOTORS -> COMPONENT DESCRIPTION -> HYDRAULIC CONTROL VALVES -> MASTER CYLINDER
Vehicle: 1990 GMC Jimmy 5.7 V8 GAS
MASTER CYLINDER
Some vehicles use a conventional tandem master cylinder with two hydraulic pistons operating in line. The primary piston controls the front brake system and the secondary piston controls the rear brake system.
Other models use a master cylinder that operates the same as the conventional master cylinder, but also incorporates a quick take-up feature in the rear chamber to reduce excessive pedal travel which may result from increased fluid displacement required to move the low drag caliper piston out against the rotor.
The quick take-up uses a spring-loaded ball...
