D.5.1.2 <strong>Power</strong> Brake Subsystem<br />

D.5.1.2.1 Vacuum Booster (Base Fusion)<br />

The base vehicle utilizes a typical single diaphragm vacuum booster (Figure D-53). This<br />

booster consists of two (2) stamped shells front and rear. The forward face provides<br />

features for attaching the master cylinder and vacuum supply port. The rear shell mounts<br />

to the dash panel and is secured to the pedal housing on the opposing side of the dash<br />

panel. The booster pushrod is secured to pedal arm using a clevis pin and clip<br />

arrangement. The two (2) housings together enclose all of the booster components.<br />

D.5.1.2.2 Vacuum Booster (HEV Fusion)<br />

A dual diaphragm active booster (Figure D-54) is utilized on the Fusion hybrid. The<br />

booster, in like manner to the base Fusion, uses a vacuum supply, master cylinder<br />

mounting, and pedal attachment features. The dual diaphragm design is typical of current<br />

automotive boosters. The electronic components that are added to the base vehicle brake<br />

booster include a position sensor, pressure sensor, and actuation solenoid (Reference<br />

Figure D-55 and Figure D-56).<br />
