Figure 7-1: Brake System BRAKE SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS Road Testing 1. If the red warning light is illuminated, note the pedal action and brake response. 2. Check the brake pedal response with the transmission in Neutral and the engine running. The pedal should remain firm under 3. During a road test, make normal and firm brake stops in 25-40 mph range. Note if a faulty brake operation such as pull, grab, 4. Inspect the suspect brake components and refer to problem diagnosis information for causes of various brake conditions. Component Inspection Fluid leak points and dragging brake units can usually be located without removing any components. The area around a leak point During component inspection, pay particular attention to heavily rusted/corroded brake components (e.g. rotors, caliper pistons, BRAKE BRAKE ROTORS BRAKE CALIPERS HYDRAULIC BRAKE LINES CALIPERS MASTER CYLINDER ABS MODULATOR 6-1-05 |
