What Causes Brake Failure to Return to Position?
1 Answers
Reasons for brake failure to return to position: Brake return spring broken or lost elasticity: Replace the brake pedal return spring. Brake caliper piston seized: Brake caliper piston seizure causing braking resistance. Rear axle issues: Rear axle bearing fixed or installed incorrectly, or rear wheel bearing worn. Dirty brake fluid: Brake fluid is highly hydrophilic and easily absorbs moisture from the air. If not replaced in time, it will contain excessive impurities and moisture, affecting the transmission of braking force. Rubber aging: Due to prolonged inactivity, the edges of the rubber and guide sleeve may stick together, causing the rubber sleeve to be cut or squeezed at the edges. Rubber fragments hinder smooth movement. Lubricating oil accelerates rubber softening and aging, causing the rubber sleeve to elongate when inserted into the guide sleeve and compressed, making it more prone to sticking or jamming at the edges.
