Your ABS Pump’s System The purpose of anti-lock brakes is to reduce the skidding that can occur with sudden stops or stops on slick surfaces. The system helps your vehicle stop quickly and allows you to control the steering while you are braking. The complete ABS system includes the pump, valves, a controller and speed sensors. ABS Pumps Your ABS pump is normally part of the complete hydraulic valve assembly. The pump unit consists of a pump motor, electronic control module and solenoid valve assembly. The brakes lines feed into and out of this system. To control the braking system, valves will reduce and release pressure to your brakes. The valves open to allow pressure from the master cylinder to flow to your brakes. The valves will move into a closed position to prevent further pressure from building in extreme braking. The valves will then begin to release pressure to provide control. This pressure needs to be restored and that is the function of the ABS pump. Often the only time you will know that your pump is failing is when the ABS warning light goes on in your dash assembly. You can tell that the system is working when you feel pulsing in your brake pedal while applying the brakes. On new vehicles, the valve assembly can sometimes be replaced without […]
Used Brake Calipers For Sale
Used Brake Calipers For Sale The brake calipers are a critical component of your vehicle’s braking system. Failure of a caliper may prevent the brake disc from contacting the rotor. The opposite can also occur with the caliper becoming frozen against the rotor. When you need to purchase used brake calipers for your vehicle, we can help you find exactly the right parts quickly. Enter your search information into the section at the top of this page for fast results. When you press on the brake pedal, fluid in the brake system applies pressure to the brake calipers. The calipers squeeze together, applying the brake pads to the rotor. This pressure is what slows down and stops your vehicle. Older vehicles used brake shoes, when hydraulic pressure was applied, the shoes pressed outwards against the brake drum. Newer vehicle use disc brakes on the front wheels. Some vehicles use disc brakes on all four wheels. Floating Calipers Floating calipers push in and then move back out from the rotor. This style uses one or two small pistons that operate off the brake fluid pressure. Both sides of the calipers will force the discs to contact the rotor to stop your vehicle. Fixed Calipers With fixed calipers, pistons on both sides of the rotor become the moving elements. The pistons themselves apply pressure to the discs to slow and stop your vehicle. Some fixed caliper systems will use more than two sets of pistons on each side of the brake rotor. Remember that your calipers are only one component of the entire brake system and all parts must work together correctly. Calipers, as well as pads, should be replaced in sets. There are several other components […]
