2006 Ford E-250 Brake Master Cylinder Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the brake master cylinder with hydro-boost on 2006 Ford E-250?

  A: Disconnection of the battery ground cable marks the beginning of brake master cylinder with hydro-boost servicing and repairing. A suitable suction device removes the brake fluid from the master cylinder reservoir before removal of coolant reservoir bolts to set the reservoir aside securely with 10 Nm torque limit. Disconnect the brake level switch and speed control deactivator switches' electrical wires and afterward detach the master cylinder tube fittings. Tighten these fittings to 18 Nm when without traction control or stability assist but to 28 Nm when with these systems installed. Discard the brake master cylinder nuts because they are torque-prevailing before replacing them with a torque of 26 Nm (19 ft. lbs.). The technician must first take off the power steering line bracket followed by the brake master cylinder itself. The installation process finishes by following all removal steps backward and running a brake system bleed procedure. The use of brake fluid beyond DOT 3 standard will lead to permanent damage of brake components while proper precaution must be taken to protect eyes along with painted surfaces and plastic components since brake fluid creates harmful effects.
