DISC BRAKES, FORD MOTOR CO. -> General Information -> BRAKE DISC SERVICE -> BLEEDING DISC BRAKES -> BRAKE ROUGHNESS
Vehicle: 1990 Ford Probe LX 3.0 V6 GAS
Servicing of disc brakes is extremely critical due to the close tolerances required in machining the brake disc to insure proper brake operation.
The maintenance of these close controls of the shape of the rubbing surfaces is necessary to prevent brake roughness. In addition, the surface finish must be non-directional and maintained at a micro inch finish. This close control of the rubbing surface finish is necessary to avoid pulls and erratic performance and promote long lining life and equal lining wear of both left and right brakes.
In light of the foregoing remarks, refinis...

HYDRAULIC BRAKES, FORD MOTOR CO. -> HYDRAULIC TUBING -> DOUBLE FLARE/INVERTED SEAT
Vehicle: 1990 Ford Probe GT 2.2 L4 GAS
Never use copper tubing as a replacement for steel tubing. Copper tubing is subject to fatigue cracking and corrosion which could result in brake system
Steel tubing is used to conduct hydraulic pressure to the brakes. All fittings, tubing and hose should be inspected for rusted, damaged or defective flared seats. The tubing is equipped with a double flare/inverted seat or I.S.O. flare to insure more positive seating in the fitting. To repair or reflare tubing, proceed as follows:
DOUBLE FLARE/INVERTED SEAT
- Using the tool shown inFig. or equivalent, cut off the damaged seat or da...

BRAKE DRUMS
Any time the brake drums are removed for brake service, the braking surface diameter should be checked with a suitable brake drum micrometer at several points to determine if they are within the safe oversize limit stamped on the brake drum outer surface. If the braking surface diameter exceeds specifications, the drum must be replaced. If the braking surface diameter is within specifications, drums should be cleaned and inspected for cracks, scores, deep grooves, taper, out of round and heat spotting. If drums are cracked or heat spotted, they must be replaced. Mi...

ANTI-LOCK BRAKES, FORD MOTOR CO. -> Probe -> DESCRIPTION -> Accumulator -> Actuation Assembly -> Control Unit -> Fluid Reservoir -> Master Cylinder -> Solenoid Valves -> SYSTEM COMPONENTS -> Wheel Sensors
Vehicle: 1990 Ford Probe GL 2.2 L4 GAS
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) functions by releasing and applying fluid pressure to wheel cylinders during braking, Fig. . During normal driving conditions the system does not function and has no effect on front to rear brake proportioning. When one or more wheels approaches a slip condition. The ABS automatically senses the slip and activates the pressure control function.
Through pre-programming, the control unit decides which wheel or wheel`s brakes pressures need modulation. The control unit sends appropriate signals to solenoid valves located in the actuation assembly. The co...

DRUM BRAKES, FORD MOTOR CO. -> General Information -> SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
Vehicle: 1990 Ford Probe GT 2.2 L4 GAS
When working on or around brake assemblies, care must be taken to prevent breathing asbestos dust, as many manufacturers incorporate asbestos fibers in the production of brake linings. During routine service operations the amount of asbestos dust from brake lining wear is at a low level, due to a chemical break down during use and a few precautions will minimize exposure.Do not sand or grind brake linings unless suitable local exhaust ventilation equipment is used to prevent excessive asbestos exposure.
The brake shoe and lining assemblies should be replaced if the lining is ...
