What to Do If the Brake Pump Leaks Oil?
1 Answers
The solutions for a leaking brake pump are: 1. Replace the brake pump oil pipe; 2. Clean impurities or replace the sealing ring; 3. Reinstall the brake pump screws. The brake pump is an indispensable chassis braking component of the braking system. Its main function is to push the brake pads, which then rub against the brake drum to slow down or stop the vehicle. When the brake pedal is pressed, the master cylinder generates thrust to pressurize the hydraulic oil to the wheel cylinders. The pistons inside the wheel cylinders move under hydraulic pressure, pushing the brake pads. The reasons for brake pump damage are: 1. Dirty brake oil causing wear on the wheel cylinders; 2. Aging and wear of the brake wheel cylinder rubber cups; 3. Poor sealing.
