HI, the Dodge , Chrysler,and Desoto power brake units are the same. Flushing the unit will not restore its operation. I am sending you a link to two companies I have used to obtain parts for vintage Chrysler products. One of then should have either a new or rebuilt unit, or a rebuild kit for you car.Since it sat for an extended period it is not uncommon for the parts it the booster to dry up and cause the booster not to operate.

Subject: [diesel_mercedes] Boyd's Brake Booster problem

 

 

I went to the Mom and Pop auto parts store and they told me that they send their brake boosters to Texas, it is very expensive and work 80% of the time. The brake booster at RockAuto, when I put it in my cart I got a message that they are out of stock. I did put my email address and phone number in so I would be notified when they get one in stock.
Anyway, I am looking for any other idea that you guys may have. It is a brake booster for a 1954 Town and Country wagon.

[diesel_mercedes] Re: Electric Windows

 

Well, problem finally solved. I thought I had replaced all the relays, but there was one that I had not seen. It was hiding behind the instrument cluster but covered up by the insulation that is back there. I pulled it out and it rattled, so I knew it was bad.

Once I put a new one in its place, wallah! All four windows now working!
