Brake

It’s important to check the brake fluid color occasionally. Brake fluid powers the hydraulic component in the anti-lock braking system (ABS).  Any force applied to the brake pedal is sent to the wheel cylinders or callipers. Because of the pressure that is built up in the brake line, the pistons are able to move.  Vehicles are brought to a halt by the friction created when pistons force the braking pads toward rotors or drums. Why it works so well in the brake system because it is a non-compressible fluid. An additional crucial function is performed … Read more

Brake bleeding is a practice used on hydraulic brake mechanisms to remove any air bubbles from the brake lines. Here we’ll see how bleeding brakes are done. The soft brake pedal can’t be fixed by buying new brake pads. You might have noticed that, even after replacing the brake pads, you still need to press the pedal all the way down to halt the vehicle. A set of brand-new, extra-thick pads should have been enough to get that pedal back to where it belonged, but it wasn’t.  When you get a spongy braking feeling, it … Read more
