Why Does the Brake Pump Fail?
1 Answers
Reasons for brake pump failure: Long-term wear of brake pads and misalignment of the brake disc surface. It is recommended to re-grind the disc or replace the brake pads. Symptoms of a faulty car brake pump: 1. Soft brakes; 2. Sudden brake failure; 3. Brake pulling to one side; 4. Brake pedal not returning or slow to return. The brake pump is an indispensable component of the braking system, primarily responsible for pushing the brake pads, which then rub against the brake drum to slow down or stop the vehicle. When the brake is pressed, the master cylinder generates thrust to push hydraulic fluid to the wheel cylinders, where the internal pistons move under hydraulic pressure to push the brake pads.
