2000 Ford Focus Brake Master Cylinder Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the brake master cylinder on 2000 Ford Focus?

  A: You should start brake master cylinder service or repairs by cleaning any brake fluid spills from the paintwork with cold water and disconnecting the battery ground cable. Removal of filler cap electrical connector begins by pulling the tab then pressing together the clips. The next procedure requires you to remove the brake fluid reservoir filler cap while avoiding contamination. Begin by lightly loosening the wheel nuts on the front wheels while raising and supporting the vehicle before removing these wheels. The brake fluid can be drained through the bleed nipple by taking away the dust cap which allows the nipple to become slowly loose. Connect a bleed tube to the bleed nipple to drain fluid while aiming it into a suitable container before pumping the brake pedal until all fluid is cleared and securing the bleed nipple. After(Equalizer position) put back the brake fluid reservoir cap. First remove the air cleaner along with its outlet tube and detach the central electrical box connection while removing its retaining screw to relocate the central electrical box at the air cleaner position. The operator must disconnect the brake fluid feed tube before applying caps to brake tube connections for fluid retention and preventing contamination. All vehicles with anti-lock brakes require the brake tube connections to receive caps for protection during the procedure. You should exhaust the brake booster vacuum first before removal by detaching the vacuum line from the unit then proceed to uninstall the master cylinder. Installation requires suitable placement of the vacuum seal along with cleaned mating faces followed by brake system bleeding performed through reverse removal steps.
