BRAKE SERVICE PROCEDURES FOR 1992 Pontiac Sunbird AUTOMOBILES
Hydraulic Brake Systems -> Description -> BRAKE DISTRIBUTION VALVE & SWITCH -> BRAKE WARNING LAMP SWITCHES -> COMBINATION VALVE -> COMPONENT DESCRIPTION -> Diagonally Split System -> Failure Warning Switch -> Fluid Level Sensor -> Front & Rear Split System -> Metering Valve -> Proportioning Or Pressure Control Valve -> SYSTEM OPERATION -> Testing Warning Lamp Operation
Vehicle: 1992 Pontiac Sunbird GT 3.1 V6 GAS
SYSTEM OPERATION
Front & Rear Split System
When the brake pedal is depressed, both the primary (front brake) and the secondary (rear brake) master cylinder pistons are moved simultaneously to exert hydraulic fluid pressure on their respective systems, Fig. .
If the rear (secondary) brake system fails, initial brake pedal movement will cause the unrestricted secondary piston to bottom in the master cylinder bore. Primary piston movement will displace hydraulic fluid in the primary section of the master cylinder to actuate the front brake system.
If the front (primary) brake system fails,...
