This was the E bay seller: ABS Brake Pump Master Cylinder Booster Assembly 05 09 Toyota 4Runner STK A48515 | eBay At the time back in 2014 he was selling the booster assembly (pump and accumulator) for $275 shipped. Not sure if he still offers just the assembly anymore or if you have to buy...

I changed out the booster pump and accumulator assembly, bought it from a used parts house on E-bay. They gave a 3 month warranty on the part, been two years and still working great. It took me about 3 hours from start to finish to perform the swap out. The hardest part was putting a small...

I was able to pick up the booster pump assembly with a accumulator. Since it is independent of the master cylinder and ABS module, is it possible to replace these components without having to disconnect and remove the master cylinder off the firewall? I have looked at the pictures and while...

BlackWorksInc Thanks for your reply. You didn't give any info regarding the sensor operation. I am not certain as it is VERY vague as to whether the "Pressure Switch" is the same as the "Pressure Sensor". Any info would be greatly appreciated as I have not ordered any parts yet. I did...

KM, Thanks for the pages. They show the whole system off of the firewall. It just seems like a lot of work to replace a part that screws in and out on the topside. I would consider replacing the whole unit but the motor is pressurizing the system fine, all lights bells and whistle go out...

I am in the same boat............had the same issue found the system low on Freon, charged it, all has been well.....waiting for the other shoe to drop I guess. OH GOODIE! What next? My GMC C1500 waited 39 months before it started giving me issues at least I got 10 years out of this one.

Salvage yards, in my area, would pretty much out of the question. The sun here in S. Florida is hard on plastic. I would be purchasing two caps in the same condition as ones that broke.

Make my ABS brakes happy, tires, shocks and struts in that order.....

Does anyone have a better source than the dealership for the plastic roof rack end caps? I need the two front ones .

I have come to the conclusion after hours of internet research and multiple testing sessions that the accumulator is on its way out on my 04 SR5. The booster pump is working and all the dash lights go out as soon as the accumulator hits pressure. However, after an hour the codes are back...

Thank you for the replies! I tinkered with the system this evening and this is what I found. I disconnected the master cylinder pressure sensor and it threw up a code 46 that there was a malfunction. So I reconnected the sensor and can cross off pressure sensor. I decided to tap on the...

All I can find is a Master Cylinder Oil Pressure Sensor Part# 89637-60020.............Would this be the same part listed as a "Pressure Switch" in the diagnostic?

I have a 2004 SR5 V6 with 165K and it has ran like a top since I purchased it. Yesterday morning it it reared an ugly head. I was sitting at a stop light and the brake pedal began to pulsate then the dash lit up like a Christmas tree. Brake/ABS/VSC On/Trac OFF and a buzzer from hell all came...
