2004 Ford Focus Brake Master Cylinder Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the brake master cylinder on 2004 Ford Focus?

  A: The brake master cylinder service process starts with disconnecting the battery ground cable while the removal of brake fluid residues requires cold water washing of paintwork. Users need to disconnect the electrical connector of the filler cap through a two-step process which starts by opening the tab before pressing the clips. First remove the filler cap from the brake fluid reservoir before you loosen both front wheel nuts while raising the vehicle on supports. Start by removing the front wheels then proceed to the bleed nipple removal process by taking off its dust cap and subsequently opening up the nipple. Open the brake fluid reservoir by connecting a bleed tube to its bleed nipple and guiding it into a suitable holding container after which you should compress the brake pedal until all fluid empties and screw down the bleed nipple. Put away the brake fluid reservoir cap and lower the vehicle down. To begin the upgrade start by disabling the air cleaner and outlet tube followed by disconnection of the central electrical box connector along with the removal of its retaining screw before separating the electrical box and placing it in the air cleaner position. Sever the brake fluid feed tube but maintain proper sealing of the brake tube ends to prevent fluid loss as well as stop dirt from entering. The brake tubes require secondary capping when dealing with vehicles that incorporate anti-lock brakes. To replace the master cylinder thoroughly exhaust the brake booster vacuum before detachment by taking off the vacuum pipe. Remove the master cylinder from the vehicle. Step one for installation requires you to place the vacuum seal correctly while making sure both mating faces remain clean until the removal steps are completed in reverse order. The brake system requires bleeding after successful installation completes the process.
