Cadillac Fleetwood Brake Proportioning Valve
Brake Proportioning Valve is an important component of Cadillac Fleetwood cars to manage the braking system to its optimal. Its main use is to control brake fluid pressure between the front disks and rear drum brakes so as to avoid the rear brakes making contact while the car is being braked rapidly. This is made possible through the use of fluid pressure dynamics whereby the valve regulates the output forces relative to the Brake Line Cross-sectional Area. The Cadillac Fleetwood has applied different styles of Brake Proportioning Valves depending on the years used in making the vehicle with a higher braking efficiency. One of the major distinctions, which can be observed among these types of brakes, is the power of the regulation of pressure, which is important for keeping management in emergency braking scenarios. In general, the Brake Proportioning Valve plays a crucial role in the Cadillac Fleetwood and carries a lot of importance in the car's braking system assisting in the vehicle's safety.
Each OEM Cadillac Fleetwood Brake Proportioning Valve we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
Cadillac Fleetwood Brake Proportioning Valve Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How do brake proportioning valves enhance front-to-rear brake balance during severe brake applications, and How to their removal and installation on Cadillac Fleetwood?A: The brake proportioning valves enhance front-to-rear brake balance during severe brake applications, which shift some of the vehicle's rear weight to the front wheels, potentially leading to decreased braking efficiency and rear wheel lockup. These valves limit pressure to the rear brakes to mitigate this issue. For removal and installation without Anti-Lock brakes on 1990 vehicles, disconnect the negative battery cable, detach the brake lines from the proportioning valves, and remove the valve and O-rings from the master cylinder. When installing, lubricate new O-rings and valve threads with clean brake fluid, secure the valves to the master cylinder, reconnect the brake lines, and bleed the brake system. For 1991-93 DeVille and Fleetwood models, remove the master cylinder, clamp it in a vise, and carefully tap back the spring pins to detach the reservoir. Inspect and clean all parts, lubricate new seals and O-rings, and reassemble the components before reinstalling the master cylinder and bleeding the system. For models with Anti-Lock brakes from 1990, depressurize the hydraulic system by pumping the brake pedal multiple times, then disconnect the brake lines and remove the proportioning valve. Reinstall the valve, connect the lines, and bleed the system. For 1991-98 models, raise the vehicle, clean connections, disconnect the lines, and remove the valve before reinstalling and bleeding the system.
