Replacing brake booster vacuum hose
Hello folks,
I'm currently trying to replace the brake booster switch and hose for a 2001 V40.
The short story is that the vacuum check switch snapped in half, I bought a replacement part that comes with the switch and hoses going to the electric pump as well as the engine. The electric pump is simple enough, depress a little clip and the hose comes right off.
I'm not sure how to remove the end that goes into the crank case. The replacement part only has an inch long brass section but the old one will only pull for a tiny bit before it just wouldn't budge. Is there a hidden lock somewhere?
Thanks in advance,
Dan
