TEVES II booster issues

OK, got an 88TC and both the brake and antilock lights are lit up  in the dash.  The pedal is like a rock, although, occasionally it will work properly.  I have checked the connectors, but dont know how to troubleshoot the teves system.  Is there a test point to see if it is pressurizing?  Does anyone have a wiring diagram??

BTW, I had a 1988 T-Bird Sport way back when. I found out that it was totalled shortly after trading it in. It still has the ignition switch recall to date.

Special thanx to EricCoolCats for showing me to this site.:bowdown:

Sounds like an acspoogeulator problem.
Make sure the pump is running when you turn the key to run,othwise check your relays.

The relay failure is common... Mine didn't operate 3-4 years ago, smacked it with my tennis shoe, been fine since(I do carry a spare relay in the console)...

Has twice been my experience that a bad acspoogeulator results in normal pedal feel on light braking, but pedal gets hard on heavy braking, at least until the pump kicks on and rebuilds pressure...
