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

  A: Service and repair of the brake master cylinder requires disconnecting the battery negative cable together with the brake fluid level sensor electrical connector. Start by disconnecting the brake tubes through fitting loosening followed by bolt removal of the brake master cylinder. A new master cylinder require bench bleeding treatment before the current installation progress. Finish the installation by following the reversal of removal procedures then perform brake system bleeding afterward. Brake components sustain permanent damage when using improper brake fluids such as DOT 3 or DOT 4 since this practice makes brakes become completely nonfunctional. When working with brake fluid people must exercise caution because both polyglycol ethers and polyglycols present hazardous materials and any eye contact should prompt immediate hand washing followed by medical assistance for all forms of irritation. High caution is needed because brake fluid has the potential to damage plastic or painted surfaces so immediate water treatment of any spillage on these materials is essential.
