2000 Chevrolet Malibu Brake Master Cylinder Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the brake master cylinder on 2000 Chevrolet Malibu?

  A: You must disconnect the fluid level switch electrical connector and remove the brake pipe tube nuts (3,4) from the master cylinder assembly. Secure the open brake pipes (3,4) first to stop brake fluid loss and then take off the mounting nuts to extract the master cylinder from the booster. Connect the master cylinder to the power booster assembly through mounting nuts and tighten them to 27 nm (20 ft. Lbs.). Insert and tighten the brake pipe tube nuts (3,4) to their positions on the master cylinder assembly at 23 nm (17 ft. Lbs). Join the electrical plug to the fluid level switch. Stay careful when working with brake fluid because it poses damage to painted parts, wires, cables, and electric connectors. If brake fluid leaks, clean the affected area properly. Let clean brake fluid cover the reservoir for its proper height before starting brake system bleeding procedures.
