Yes, a bad master cylinder can cause pulsing in the brake system. If the master cylinder is failing, it may not provide consistent hydraulic pressure, leading to irregular braking and a pulsing sensation in the brake pedal. This issue can also be exacerbated by problems in the brake lines or calipers, but the master cylinder is often a key factor in maintaining proper brake function. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of faulty components are essential for safe braking performance.
