Don't try it yourself. Consult the Authorized Serviceman instead. Brake Impairment maybe Hazardous.

2017 Isuzu NPR DIESEL batteries died today replaced them now when you start it up the brake booster and brake light comes on

When the brake booster light and brake light come on after replacing the batteries in a 2017 Isuzu NPR Diesel, it could indicate a problem with the brake system or a malfunctioning brake booster.
Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check the brake fluid level: Low brake fluid level can cause the brake booster light and brake light to come on. Open the hood and check the brake fluid level in the reservoir. If the level is low, top it up with the recommended brake fluid and check if the lights go off.
  2. Check the brake system: Inspect the brake lines, brake pads, and brake rotors for any damage or wear. If the brake pads are worn out, replace them immediately.
  3. Check the brake booster: The brake booster is responsible for increasing the force applied to the brake pedal. Check the brake booster for any damage or wear. If the brake booster is malfunctioning, it will need to be replaced.
  4. Reset the brake booster light: If the brake booster light and brake light stay on even after checking the brake fluid level and inspecting the brake system, it may be necessary to reset the brake booster light. To reset the brake booster light, turn the ignition switch to the "on" position without starting the engine. Pump the brake pedal 3 times, then turn the ignition switch off. Start the engine and check if the lights go off.
If none of these steps work, it is recommended to take the vehicle to a certified mechanic or the nearest Isuzu dealership for a professional diagnosis and repair.

How to replace brake booster on 2005 Pontiac aztek

Step 1 - Locate the Brake Booster The brake booster is located adjacent to the master cylinder. There will be 4 mounting screws protruding through the booster. The booster is also attached to the brake pedal in the interior of the car. This is where you will start work in replacing the brake booster.
Step 2 - Remove the Brake Booster Start by locating the booster rod that goes through the firewall and is attached to the brake pedal on the interior of the car. Typically, there is a cotter pin that secures the rod to the pedal, but there may also be nuts. When removing any fasteners in the course of this job, make sure to retain the nuts, cotter pins, and various other fasteners as the new brake booster will not come with replacement fasteners.
Remove the fasteners, whether it is a cotter pin or nuts. Slide the rod off the brake pedal. Disconnect the vacuum brake line that connects to the booster. In the engine compartment, there are four bolts securing the booster to the master cylinder and firewall. Loosen and remove these nuts. Remove the nuts (there are usually 2 in addition to the 4 that have already been removed) that secure the brake booster to the master cylinder. Wiggle the brake booster away from the master cylinder. There is a seal between the two. You will need to keep this as the new part does not generally come with another one. Remove the brake booster.
Step 3 - Install the New Brake Booster Set the new brake booster on the four mounting screws. Tighten the nuts on the bolts to the master cylinder. Insert the push rod through the firewall. Start these by hand so that the threads are not ruined. Reattach the vacuum hose, then the nuts to the 4 mounting screws. Reattach the push rod to the brake pedal by whatever means it was originally secured with, whether by cotter pin or by bolts.
Step 4 - Bleed the Brakes You will need to bleed the brakes after replacing the brake booster

Replacing power brake booster

You don't need to remove the pedal to get the booster off,it just slides inside,so when the booster is unhooked it will just pull out.
