Test and replace the faulty brake booster pressure sensor, if necessary
Check for any open or short circuits in the brake booster pressure sensor circuit and repair as needed
Ensure proper electrical connections in the brake booster pressure sensor circuit
Test and replace the brake booster control module if it is determined to be faulty
Test and replace the engine control module (ECM) if it is determined to be faulty
