Why does the brake respond only when pressed deeply?
1 Answers
The reasons why the brake responds only when pressed deeply are: 1. The brake fluid is dirty or contains air, requiring replacement and bleeding of the brake fluid; 2. The brake master cylinder is leaking pressure. Check the fluid level and the retraction of the four wheel cylinders. Try bleeding the system, and if the issue persists, the brake master cylinder may need replacement. The brake is a mechanical device used to slow down the vehicle, also known as a decelerator. The car's brake pedal is located below the steering wheel. Pressing the brake pedal activates the brake linkage, which applies pressure to the brake pads on the brake drum, clamping the brake rotor to slow or stop the vehicle. The manual brake (handbrake) in a car is located beside the gear shift and is connected to the brake linkage. Common examples also include bicycle brakes, which use rod-shaped brakes fixed to the frame or disc brakes to slow down the bike.
