    Is it normal for a booster to just give out when you replace pads/calipers/rotors/mc? It just doesn't make sense to me that it would just quit working like that. I get parts at cost so it's no problem, I just don't want to have to spend unnecessary amounts of money and time (like I did on the master cylinder, which I know now was fine beforehand and was not the cause of the soft pedal). Does anyone know of any good ABS Scanners? I heard Actron was a good brand. I think I may purchase one and scan the system, I heard you may have to reset the ABS on the Grand Prix. Is that a necessary step? It was mentioned in my Chilton's but not as a necessity. Thanks again everyone!

    youll have to wait for someone else to chime in about the scanner. I dont know anything about them. I dought that you replacing the parts would cause that to go out like that but when my last one went out it was more like an o **** I all of a sudden dont have brakes
