Disc Brakes -> Rear Disc Brakes & Parking Brakes -> Troubleshooting -> BRAKE ROUGHNESS
Vehicle: 1994 Ford Probe SE 2.0 L4 GAS

BRAKE ROUGHNESS

The most common cause of brake chatter on disc brakes is a variation in thickness of the disc. 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. To check for this condition, measure the disc at 12 points with a micrometer at a radius approximately one inch from the edge of the disc. If thickness measurements vary by more t...

Vehicle: 1994 Ford Probe SE 2.0 L4 GAS

FRONT & REAR SPLIT SYSTEMS

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 independent hydraulic systems. The fluid displacement of the master cylinder is proportioned to fulfill the requirements of each of the two independent hydraulic brake systems, Fig. .

If a failure of a rear (secondary) brake system should occur, initial brake pedal movement causes the unrestricted secondary piston to bottom in the master cylinder bore. Primary p...

Disc Brakes -> Rear Disc Brakes & Parking Brakes -> BRAKE DISC SERVICE
Vehicle: 1994 Ford Probe SE 2.0 L4 GAS

Disc brake service is extremely critical due to the close tolerances required in machining the brake disc to ensure proper brake operation.

Maintaining close control 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 is necessary to avoid pulls and erratic performance and promote long lining life and equal lining wear of both the left and right brakes.

Do not attempt to refinish the rubbing surfaces unless precision equipment...

Includes anti-lock brakes, disc, drum, power and hydraulic brake services diagnostics and procedures for domestic and imported 1994 Ford Probe cars and light trucks from 1990+.

Anti-lock Brakes -> Probe -> Description
Vehicle: 1994 Ford Probe SE 2.0 L4 GAS

The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), Figs. through , functions by releasing and applying fluid pressure to the brake calipers during certain braking conditions. 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 ...
