964 Turbo brake booster dont work

[spjuvern]

Hi my 964 Turbo -91 has been still in the garage for many years.
Now when i start using it the brake booster pump dont work so pedal is firm.

if i conect pin 1 and 4 at presure switch the booster pump is running.
could it be internal problem in the presure sensor? or any tip what i should check up?

For starters if the car has sat for many years don't start it.

I would flush the brake system with new fluid and drain the fuel tank fill with fresh gas, change the oil and pray. Pull the fuel pump fusses and crank engine until pressure starts to rise before starting after flushing teh fluids.

The brake booster could be many things. If the pump does not start when the key is turned it could be the ignition switch. Once the pump is engaged it should pressurize the bomb in about a minute or less more than a minute and a half it probably needs a new pressure switch.

I would also verify how old the tires are. Porsche recommends replacing after 6 years if they are older I wouldn't drive it. These cars can hurt you with bad tires.

Sorry I can't be of more help but I wouldn't expect to start and drive it after sitting for so long.

Do you get any brake warning lights( warning buzzer) when you turn on the ignition ? If you start and run the engine? Do get any when you get the pump running bypassing the pressure switch?

It could be that the pressure switch has stuck/seized in the "maximum pressure" position. This would "fool" the system, no warning lights despite pump not running at all. I believe the switch can be removed from the pump and tested. Could be worth checking/ cleaning all contacts in the pump.
