How to Add Brake Fluid for Electric Vehicles?
1 Answers
The method for adding brake fluid to an electric vehicle is as follows: 1. Remove the cover of the oil reservoir on the handlebar; 2. Unscrew the vent on the disc brake caliper of the wheel, which is protected by a rubber sleeve; 3. After unscrewing, you can drain the old fluid and add new fluid into the reservoir from the oil reservoir. Characteristics of brake fluid: 1. Good viscosity-temperature performance with a low freezing point, ensuring good fluidity at low temperatures; 2. High boiling point, preventing vapor lock at high temperatures; 3. Minimal quality changes, avoiding corrosion and deterioration of metal and rubber. The method for replacing brake fluid is: 1. Park the vehicle on level ground and turn off the engine, then open the engine compartment cover and drain the fluid from the oil tank; 2. Use a funnel to fill the oil reservoir with new brake fluid; 3. Use a jack to lift the vehicle and start removing the tires from the rear wheels; 4. Remove the rubber dust cap on the brake caliper; 5. Use a wrench to loosen the bleed screw and attach a rubber tube to it, connecting it to a drain bottle; 6. Press the brake pedal inside the vehicle while observing the fluid drainage until the oil level in the engine compartment reservoir reaches the lower limit.
