Hello website visitors. I want to share with you a little car trick that can grow into big trouble.
My rear brake lights have stopped burning. After dismantling the bulbs, the right one was burned out, the left worker. The fuse turned out to be whole. Then the suspicion fell on the "frog", he is also a limit switch. Having removed the chip from the trailer (installed at the top of the brake pedal bracket), I closed the contacts and the stop caught fire. Then I took off the trailer, cleaned the contacts, and when checking everything worked. Set it in its place. I went to the store.
After driving a little, I noticed that the car was slowing down. With each stop, the brakes wedged harder. In the end, I stopped and the wheels locked completely.
Tormented for some time, by typing, I still got to the bottom of the reason. And the reason is the trailer. Apparently he is somehow connected with the brain. When it worked incorrectly, the brains sent a signal and, probably, the ABS worked (or maybe I'm wrong). In any case, after dismantling the sensor, the brakes were released.
While there is an opportunity, I’ll supplement it.
Yesterday I was not at home and did not understand further. Today I’m going home, the sensor has been dismantled, but it’s connected to the chip (it hangs on the wires). There are no stops, of course. I understand that the car is going stupidly, there are no speakers. I stop, remove the chip from the sensor. Food, everything is fine. When the sensor is dismantled but not disconnected, the computer sees that I start to slow down and gives a command to the engine "stop". Like this.
Now for the sensor. Sensor disassembled. There is nothing sophisticated there. Two terminals with contacts and a spring with a rod. The pedal squeezed, the spring pushed the rod, the contacts closed. They were burnt. After assembly and installation, the brake began to wedge again.
Now look at the photo above. There are thread type notches on the sensor body. In the pedal bracket, socket. So, when I installed the sensor in place, I pressed it with force and turned (stopped). And thus I was pressing the brake pedal.
It was necessary to insert the sensor into the socket, press in, and, as soon as the rod drowned in the body, stop.
I just don’t understand why, with the pedal depressed, each time the brake is pressed, it wedged harder and harder.
