Q: How to replace the brake master cylinder on Buick LeSabre?
A: To replace Brake Master Cylinder; disconnect the electrical connector of Brake Fluid Level Sensor and the brake pipes from master cylinder in line, make sure to cap the exposed brake pipe fitting ends using a rubber cap or plug to avoid losing fluids vales due to spillage. Next, insert the open brake pipe fitting ends, remove 2 master cylinder mounting nuts, and remove the master cylinder. When the reservoir is to be used again, take it out of the master cylinder. For installation, connect the Brake Master Cylinder reservoir to the vacuum Brake Booster if was detached, bench bleed the master cylinder, then connect it to the vacuum Brake Booster and refer to the fastener notice in service precautions. Mount the master cylinder with the 2 mounting nuts with 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs) of torque, then drain the plugs from the brake pipes and attach them to the master cylinder and tighten the fittings to 33 nm (24 ft. Lbs.). Finally, reconnect the Brake Fluid Level Sensor electric connector and bleed the hydraulic brake system.
Q: How to replace the brake master cylinder on Buick LaCrosse?
A: The primary step to replace the Brake Master Cylinder involves disconnecting power connections from the brake fluid sensor and brake lines before removing from the master cylinder. Use rubber caps to seal exposed brake pipe ends so brake fluid stays inside and remains sterile. Then remove the mounting nuts from the master cylinder and carry it out of the vehicle with draining of all brake fluid from the reservoir. Before mounting the master cylinder to the vacuum Brake Booster you need to bench bleed it and fasten the master cylinder mounting nuts to 33 nm (24 ft. Lbs.). Install the brake pipes on the master cylinder then tighten the fitting bolts to 30 nm for abs systems and 27 nm for front brake pipes and 25 nm for the rear brake pipes without abs. Reattach the electrical connector to the brake fluid sensor then perform a brake fluid bleeding process.
Q: How to replace the brake master cylinder on Buick Regal?
A: First step to replace the Brake Master Cylinder is disconnecting the Brake Fluid Level Sensor and the brake pipes from the master cylinder while installing rubber caps or plugs to seal the open brake pipe fittings to prevent brake fluid loss and contamination. Install brake pipe caps then loosten the master cylinder unit bolts to extract the master cylinder with complete drain of brake fluid. Before installation into the vacuum Brake Booster you should bench bleed the master cylinder then install and secure its mounting nuts to 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.). Join the brake pipes to the master cylinder and fix the pipe connections at the master cylinder with 15 nm (11 ft. Lb) torque settings. Attach the electrical connection to the brake fluid sensor then perform brake system bleeding.
