Why is there an excessive and continuous hissing sound when the brake pedal is pushed?
Hissing from the brake pedals being push indicates that there is air in the brake system. It also indicates that the brake pads may be wore down and are not able to grab to stop the car.
When to change brake calipers are good?
Consider the caliper as potentially damaged if the pads wore to metal. If the rubber dust boot around the piston is torn they may work but will soon fail as water gets in and begins corroding the bore. If the piston doesn't slide easily, they are probably shot. Rear brake calipers on some cars (Fords) incorporate a ratcheting adjuster for the hand brake. They seem to fail before the hydraulics do. Inspect them for unusual wear or corrosion.
1991 Mercedes Benz e 190 that has a dash light that just came on and I have no idea what it's for It's a full circle with three smaller dashes on each side It's orange in color. any ideas Thanks?
It is very possibly a brake pad warning light Yes it is a brake pad warning light. Your brake pads are wore down and need to be replaced. there is a little wire on each brake pad that actually sits in a little hole in each brake pad. when the pads wear down to the little hole where the wire sits it makes contact with the rotor and lights the symbol on your dash. You need to change your brake pads. Hope this helps! Joe

You changed the front brake pads on your 95' Nissan pick up The driver side brakes drag you don't know how to fix it The repair manual says to turn adjustment screw there is no adjustment screw?
If it is a slight drag; no problem. However, if the rotor is getting excessively hot, I believe you have a worn brake calipher. As your old brake pads wore the pad decreased in diameter. Hydraulic fluid ( with picks up moisture and causes rust internally)took up the space within the calipher. Now that you have installed new pads the piston in the calipher has been pushed back over a corroded calipher cylinder so resistance has occured and the brake will not fully release.
What is the problem if the brakes lock up?
This problem occurs mostly with disc brakes. Over time moisture can condensate inside the calipers causing rust and the calipers to stick. This can cause excessive brake wear. Ford SUVs are especially prone to caliper problems and the Explorer line often wore out the brake pads within 10k miles..
