It sounds like your brake booster might not be working... Horrible design! Ford used the ABS pump to double as the function for the brake booster... You might want to replace the pump and the accumulator if you find that this is the problem.

Can you do damage compressing the calipers while working on brakes? How do you relieve the pressure before starting work? 1 answer

My mechanic compressed the calipers to remove to lube the sliders. Now brake pedal is hard but stopping requires more pedal pressure. Can you do damage by compressing? If so can it be corrected?
