  2. Brake fluid pressure sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fluid_pressure_sensor

    The fault could be lack of hydraulic fluid, low brake fluid in the reservoir, a broken hydraulic line or a bad master brake cylinder. The sensor is used to detect pressure differentials in the hydraulic system. If the car alerts a fault in the hydraulic system and the system checks out, the sensor itself may have failed. [2]

  3. Master cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_cylinder

    The most common vehicle uses of master cylinders are in brake and clutch systems.. In brake systems, the operated devices are cylinders inside brake calipers and/or drum brakes; these cylinders may be called wheel cylinders or slave cylinders, and they push the brake pads towards a surface that rotates with the wheel (this surface is typically either a drum or a disc, a.k.a. a rotor) until the ...

  4. Brake wear indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_wear_indicator

    This induces wear on the brake pads. The rotor A also experiences some wear, but to a lesser extent than the brake pads. The modules C are joined to the cylinder that houses the piston D and acts as counter-force to the piston D. Sufficient wear to validate a change of brake pads is considered when one of the following cases are applicable:

  5. Brake bleeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_bleeding

    The process is performed by forcing clean, bubble-free brake fluid through the entire system, usually from the master cylinder(s) to the calipers of disc brakes (or the wheel cylinders of drum brakes), but in certain cases in the opposite direction. A brake bleed screw is normally mounted at the highest point on each cylinder or caliper.

  6. Hydraulic brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_brake

    A larger diameter master cylinder delivers more hydraulic fluid to the caliper pistons, yet requires more brake pedal force and less brake pedal stroke to achieve a given deceleration. A smaller diameter master cylinder has the opposite effect. A master cylinder may also use differing diameters between the two sections to allow for increased ...

  7. 2009–2011 Toyota vehicle recalls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009–2011_Toyota_vehicle...

    The recall concerns brake fluid leakage from the master cylinder (U.S. market and non-U.S. marketed Toyota Crown and Lexus GS350) and an electrical problem with the fuel pump, which would cause engine stalling (all markets except the U.S.).

  8. Brake fade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fade

    Brake fade can be a factor in any vehicle that utilizes a friction braking system including automobiles, trucks, motorcycles, airplanes, and bicycles. Brake fade is caused by a buildup of heat in the braking surfaces and the subsequent changes and reactions in the brake system components and can be experienced with both drum brakes and disc ...

  9. Brake fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fluid

    When the driver depresses the brake pedal, pressure is transmitted to the brake master cylinder. [19] [20] [21] The brake cylinder piston pressurizes a system of hydraulic tubes, each of which leads to a different wheel. The brake fluid in the tubes, in turn, pressurizes the brake slave cylinders, which are on each wheel.
