Why Does the Brake Pump Fail?
1 Answers
Brake pump failure can occur due to the following reasons:1. Quality issues with the brake pump: The brake caliper is not a wear-prone component, and its failure is mostly due to quality defects. Dirty brake fluid can clog the brake lines, increasing pressure on the master cylinder. Over time, this leads to ineffective braking and potential damage to the pump.2. Caliper damage from delayed replacement of brake discs and pads: Continued use of worn-out brake discs and pads beyond their limits can cause caliper damage.3. Poor quality or aged brake fluid: Inferior or deteriorated brake fluid can corrode the master cylinder's sealing diaphragm, leading to poor sealing over time. This results in the inability to maintain oil pressure, ultimately causing pump failure.
