Question 1

How to Ensure Proper Functioning of the Clutch Master Cylinder in a Ford Focus?

Accepted Answer

The first step to perform clutch master cylinder repair requires disconnecting the battery ground cable. Proceed by draining brake fluid from the reservoir up to the MIN mark while protecting the cap from contamination. You must detach the central junction box (CJB) through bolting removal and clip release. You should close the caps on upper and lower hydraulic supply lines before taking off the clutch hydraulic lines to stop fluid escape. Begin by removing the instrument panel lower panel after releasing its fastener and unscrewing it and then disconnecting the hood release cable and data link connector. The brake pedal actuating rod retaining pin needs you to depress the locking tang before removing its pin from the front bulkhead through the upper hydraulic line removal. Tap into the electrical wires that supply power to the starter safety switch along with clutch position switch and speed control deactivation switch and brake lamp switch at the pedal assembly before withdrawing these switches. The complete clutch pedal assembly and clutch master cylinder must be removed to gain access to the clutch master cylinder bolts before clutch pedal assembly nuts can be removed and the assembly itself can be taken off. To access the clutch master cylinder bolts you should mount the pedal assembly in a vise then remove the bolts before pulling the actuating rod free from the pedal arm. During installation process the clutch master cylinder should be bolted to the clutch pedal assembly then the actuating rod should be placed correctly before tightening the clutch master cylinder bolts to 9 Nm (80 inch lbs.). Position the clutch pedal assembly within the vehicle with a focus on keeping the brake pedal actuating rod retaining pin stably locked then add the brake pedal actuating rod retaining pin. Fasten the clutch pedal assembly nuts to 23 Nm torque before attaching the lower hydraulic line to the front bulkhead where the clip goes. The installation of the safety switches begins with pulling out their plungers until they reach full extension and measuring their positions: speed control deactivation switch (green) requires 24 mm length while brake lamp switch (grey) needs 21 mm and starter safety switch (black) requires 26 mm length. Install the switches by rotating the brake lamp switch counterclockwise and all other switches clockwise to avoid mechanical binding. Complete electrical connector connection to switches before setting the starter safety switch by using the clutch pedal and adding new O-ring seals. Derive and clip together the clutch master cylinder supply line with the slave cylinder supply line followed by installation of the retaining clips. First reinstall the hood release cable alongside the data link connector onto the instrument panel lower panel and then secure the trim before attaching the CJB with its retaining bolt secured by its clip. Proceed to measure the brake fluid reservoir level up to the MAX specification while using recommended fluid before bleeding the hydraulic clutch system and connecting the ground cable of the battery.

Question 2

How to service and repair the clutch master cylinder on Ford Mustang?

Accepted Answer

Service and repair work on the clutch master cylinder can start by drawing brake and clutch reservoir fluid below the clutch reservoir nipple with a suitable suction gun. The reservoir hose from the brake and clutch reservoir requires removal for which you should apply a hose plug to stop fluid leakage. The suction accumulator requires removal of its two bolts followed by setting the suction accumulator set aside. Unhook the hydraulic line by removing its clip and slide off the pedal pin retaining clip. After disconnecting the clutch master cylinder from the clutch pedal by removing its two bolts you should tighten these bolts to 10 Nm (7 ft. lbs.) before reinstallation. You should extract the clutch master cylinder from the vehicle before disconnecting the reservoir hose from its base. The installation ends by following removal steps backward while adding new clamps to the reservoir hose before adding specified fluids to reservoirs and bleeding the clutch hydraulic system. Users should treat brake fluid with caution due to hazards it poses to eyes and painted or plastic surfaces; eye flush with running water for 15 minutes during exposure then clean any fluid spills instantly with water.
