BRAKE SERVICE PROCEDURES FOR 1992 Dodge Spirit AUTOMOBILES

Includes anti-lock brakes, disc, drum, power and hydraulic brake services diagnostics and procedures for domestic and imported 1992 Dodge Spirit cars and light trucks from 1990+.

Anti-lock Brakes -> Type 2--Bendix Anti-Lock 6 Braking System -> Description -> Controller-Anti-Lock Brake (CAB) -> Master Cylinder & Brake Booster -> Modulator & Pump Motor Assembly -> SYSTEM COMPONENTS -> Wheel Speed Sensors (WSS)
Vehicle: 1992 Dodge Spirit LE 2.5 L4 GAS

The Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) prevents the wheels from locking up when braking, regardless of the surface conditions. This allows the car to stop in a shorter distance, and allows the driver to maintain directional control of the vehicle during heavy braking.

During normal braking conditions, the ABS operates like a conventional diagonally split, hydraulic power assist system. During heavy braking, however, each wheel's braking pressure is modulated according to its speed. To maintain vehicle stability, both rear wheels receive the same signal.

There are four major components, Fi...

BRAKE SERVICE PROCEDURES FOR 1992 Dodge Spirit AUTOMOBILES

Includes anti-lock brakes, disc, drum, power and hydraulic brake services diagnostics and procedures for domestic and imported 1992 Dodge Spirit cars and light trucks from 1990+.

Power Brake Units -> General Service -> CHECKING COMPLAINTS
Vehicle: 1992 Dodge Spirit ES 2.5 L4 GAS

In order to properly service and repair available brake systems, a thorough understanding of the power assist systems is necessary. The vacuum assist diaphragm assembly multiplies the force exerted on the master cylinder piston in order to increase the hydraulic pressure delivered to the wheel cylinders or calipers while decreasing the effort necessary to obtain acceptable stopping performance.

Vacuum assist units get their energy by opposing engine vacuum to atmospheric pressure. A piston, cylinder and flexible diaphragm utilize this energy to provide brake assistance. The diaph...

Disc Brakes -> Type 6-Kelsey-Hayes Dual Pin Floating Caliper Disc Brake, Front -> Brake System Bleed -> MANUAL BLEEDING -> PRESSURE BLEEDING
Vehicle: 1992 Dodge Spirit ES 2.5 L4 GAS

Bleeding the hydraulic brake system is necessary if air has entered the system. Symptoms can be noted by loss of brake operation, and/or a low or spongy brake pedal.

The hydraulic fluid is bled or flushed from the system through bleeder valves located on the calipers, wheel cylinders, and some master cylinders. When bleeding the hydraulic brake system, use only specified brake fluid. Never reuse old brake fluid removed from the system.

PRESSURE BLEEDING

Pressure bleeding is recommended for all hydraulic brake systems. It is the fastest method because the master cylinder is autom...

Power Brake Units -> Adjustments -> Colt, Colt Vista, Laser, Summit, Summit Wagon & Talon -> PUSHROD ADJUSTMENT
Vehicle: 1992 Dodge Spirit R/T 2.2 L4 GAS

PUSHROD ADJUSTMENT

In some cases adjustment of the brake booster pushrod is necessary to ensure proper operation of the power brake system. A pushrod that is too long will cause the master cylinder piston to close off the compensating port, preventing hydraulic pressure from being released and resulting in brake drag. A pushrod that is too short will cause excessive brake pedal travel and cause groaning noises to come from the booster when the...

CALIPER OVERHAUL
  • Remove caliper from rotor as described under "Brake Pads, Service."
