Sounds like air in the brake lines or Power Steering fluid in the brake system instead of brake fluid.
If the brakes on a 2003 Toyota 4Runner are locking up there is a problem with the calipers. The units should be inspected for wear, to avoid any serious injury.
No.
if back brakes are drum i would think they are worn out not allowing pistons in wheel cylanders to return. also could be valve in master cylander.altho that would cause all brakes to lock up. if disk brakes your calipers need overhauling or replacing
it is possible that your brake hoses are bad and soft not letting the brake fluid back out of your calipers
with out more info;it could be bad break cables, calipers, booster cable, and/or master cylinder
remove wheels.remove brake calipers, remove 4x4 locking hub.with special socket remove axle locking nut. brake rotor will the slide off enabling you to change bearings
You press down on the right side and it pop's open. If this does not work the fuse for your central locking must be out and needs replacing. You press down on the right side and it pop's open. If this does not work the fuse for your central locking must be out and needs replacing.
You can replace the locking cylinder, on your 1994 Ford Thunderbird, by removing the inside door panel. The locking mechanism will be visible with the door panel removed.
Mine has been the actuators for the headlights that needs replacing.
I am having the same problem. Ist time overhauled calipers. Right front pads wore out quickly. Next replaced calipers, same deal right front is locked to the point where care shakes and cannot be driven. Thinking proportioning valve or master cylinder? Anyone ever run into this?
Front wheel lock-up after replacing brakes on a 1991 Honda Civic could be due to several factors. One common issue is improper installation of the brake calipers or pads, which may lead to excessive friction. Additionally, air trapped in the brake lines can cause uneven pressure, leading to locking. Finally, a malfunctioning brake proportioning valve or a seized caliper could also be responsible for the problem.
Sounds like you will have to replace the calipers now. Could be due to pushing the piston all the way back to insert the new pads. Rebuilds do not cost that much. This is a normal occurrence if the calipers are old.
