• Q: How to service and repair the brake master cylinder on 2001 Lincoln Continental?

  A: The service and repair procedure for brake master cylinders requires a few applications of the brake pedal to remove all vacuum from the system. You must first remove the disconnect the fluid level indicator switch connector before pulling the brake tubes off at the primary and secondary outlet ports of the brake master cylinder. The first step includes disconnecting the speed control actuator electrical connector before unfastening the two nuts which allows the speed control actuator to move aside. First remove retainers that keep the wiring harness on both master cylinder mounting studs before unfastening the two nuts holding the brake master cylinder to the power brake booster assembly. Afterward place the brake master cylinder forward and vertically off the vehicle. Bleed the brake system afterward before following the reversal of removal steps when installing the parts.
