Brake issue - only right rear works
Posted: Sun Nov 22, 2009 8:57 am
Hey all I just picked up another 92 SSEi. The car runs fine but it has a break issue. A brake line rusted away and the previous owner had to replace it. The line he replaced went to the ABS control unit in the engine bay. After bleeding the breaks MANY times the brake pedal is extremely hard.
The issue however is that only the right rear brakes work. The pedal will not go down all the way at all. It almost seems like perhaps some dirt got into the line when he was changing it and now the fluid won't go to the other 3 wheels.
Going by that description, in particular how only the right rear wheel brakes, does that help you guys determine where exactly the blockage must be? Could that module itself have failed thus blocking the flow?
The traction off light is on and stays on. ABS light is NOT on.
Thank you all very much!
