Brake Roughness
Thickness Variation
If roughness or vibration is encountered during highway operation or if pedal pumping is experienced at low speeds, the disc may have excessive thickness variation. Measure the disc at 12 points with a micrometer at a radius approximately one inch from edge of disc. If thickness measurements vary by more than .0005 inch, replace the disc.
Lateral Runout
Excessive lateral runout of braking disc may cause a knocking back of the pistons, possibly creating increased pedal travel and vibration when brakes are applied.
Wheel Bearing Looseness
Replace whee...

Pressure bleeding is recommended for all hydraulic brake systems. Ensure all dirt and contaminants are removed from master cylinder area prior to removing reservoir cap.
To prevent air from the pressure tank getting into the lines, do not shake the tank while air is being added to the tank or after it has been pressurized. Set the tank in the required location, bring the air hose to the tank, and do not move it during the bleeding operation. The tank should be kept at least one-third full.

Anti-Lock Brakes -> Sable & Taurus -> Description -> ABS Module (Electronic Control Unit) -> Anti-Lock Brakes -> Hydraulic Control Unit -> Master Cylinder -> Operation -> Pedal Travel Switch -> System Components -> Traction Assist -> Vacuum Booster -> Wheel Sensors
Vehicle: 2004 Mercury Sable 3.0 V6 GAS
The Anti-Lock System (ABS) controls each brake separately, Fig. . The brake pedal force required to engage the system may vary with road surface conditions. A dry surface will require a high force, while a slippery surface will require a much less force. During system operation, the driver will sense a slight brake pedal pulsation accompanied by a rise in brake pedal height and a clicking sound. The pedal effort and pedal feel during normal braking are similar to a conventional power brake system.
The ABS module is self-monitoring. When the ignition switch is turned to the RUN positi...
