Question:
After I replace the drive shafts (right & left), the front-left wheel is locked up, causing an exessively hot wheel and vibration. I then replace (one by one) tie rod, break fluid hose, caliper, rotor and break pads. Nothing seems to release the brake. I then remove the fuse to turn off ABS, it still locks up. The brake fluid on the right side (no problem) drop out of the hose every second, while it is every 6 seconds on the left wheel. If the speed sensor is bad, then why only one wheel locks and why turning off ABS does not solve it. I could not think of any other solution. The wheel is in very bad condition, since the lock-up has damaged the brake bad very quickly (the old one is total gone). I would greatly appreciate your expertise's help.
Answers:
When you press on the brake, the fluid pressurizes.
When you release the brake pedal the brake fluid is suppose to be released back into the master cylinder.

Have someone press the brake pedal down and release it.
As soon as they take their foot off the pedal, crack the bleeder at the brake cylinder. (It should not be pressurized)
If it is, try the same thing at the MASTER cylinder.
If, there is pressure there also, after releasing the brake, then you have a bad master cylinder.

If there is no pressure, then you may have a plugged brake line, or faulty proportioning valve.

Try pouring some coca cola on the universal. I hear that coke frees up anything. At least the wheel wont suffer dehydration.More Questions & Answers ...
