Make sure all air is out of the lines. Next check the vacuum lines from the booster. Make sure the Emergency brake is all the way off this ca cause the brake light to stay on also. The light only comes on (usually) when pressure is being lost or not maintained. If there was a abs sensor connector at that wheel check that also.
It is probably the brake lights that are on due to a misinstalled or damaged brake light switch.
The correct answer is NOBUTI have seen systems with two unrelated problems have this happen. By forcing back the pistons in the caliper pushes the brake pedal up so the brake lights go out. The second problem is related to why the pedal does not return correctly:Master cylinder damageWeak or broken return springFaulty brake booster.And so on
I would say a power brake booster or a brake booster would be the same.
you have to unbolt the caliper off the rotor, but not from the brake fluid line.
1. Remove the brake hose to caliper bolt from the brake caliper. 2. Remove the brake hose from the brake caliper. 3. Remove and discard the 2 copper brake hose gaskets. These gaskets may be stuck to the brake caliper and/or the brake hose end. 4. Cap or plug the opening in the brake caliper and the brake hose to prevent fluid loss and contamination. 5. Remove the 2 brake caliper pin bolts. Remove the park brake cable from the caliper. 6. Remove the brake caliper from the brake caliper bracket.
The teves caliper is a single piston disc brake caliper and the akebono caliper is a dual piston disc brake caliper. The teves caliper is a single piston disc brake caliper and the akebono caliper is a dual piston disc brake caliper.
how do you get the brake caliper push in to put new brake on
Not completly off, you will be able to lift the caliper off, but it will still be connected to the brake-fluid hose ;) then you pop off the pads and twist back the brake piston, and There you go :)
Changing the caliper is an extension to the changing the brakes procedure.The 'extension' is to disconnect the brake line/hose from the caliper.Next extra step is to bleed the brakes - since the new caliper is going to be full of air when you first hook it up.See "Related Questions" below for more extensive coverage of the procedures...
take off wheel, then take off caliper by the 2 mounting bolts. do not let caliper hang by brake hose, tie up to spring if possible so your brake hose does not get broke. take off caliper mount, then slide rotor off. when putting back on caliper, push caliper cup in to bore, all the way with a c clamp. put caliper holder back on. then put brake pads in caliper. place caliper over rotor, and tighten down.
Begin by removing the brake lines from your 1995 GMC Jimmy brake booster. Remove the brake booster retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install your new brake booster.
Brake light switch on the brake pedal is defective
