Thank you Carnal. Im having trouble with my 90 Camry Replaced brakes, replaced Master Cylinder. Bleed all the wheels several times and still can’t get it right. The problem is my back brakes dont get enough pressure and I bleed them real good on a dry day the car stops but you can tell its having a hard time stoping on a rainy day boy o boy it just slides, the front lock up and the back keeps rolling, my wife already got up on a curb one time and broke one wheel. I dont want to trash this car since is in great condition. Hope you can help me figure this out. Muchas Gracias. Saludos.
Sometimes you can reset the valve with a screwdriver. It goes to one side if the brakes have a leak or are drained too quick during brake replacement. It's so the system doesn't run dry if there's a leak. Also.. toyota uses brake fluid for clutches so if clutch doesn't work til it hits the firewall it's actually just brake proportioning valve. Very few ppl know this. They'll replace the clutch and even try to rebuild the transmission.
Hello. Any tips on bleeding the brakes afterwards? Any different procedure? I've done this job and I can't get the brake pedal to get firm as it used to. Seems I still have air in the lines. Thanks
Hello Andre! Try breading wheel by wheel by having another person helping you. Air in the brake lines is the worst enemy on braking. You might have to refill the master cylinder a few times when doing this. Take well care Andre!
Thank you Carnal.
