Nissan with the steelies, dirty interior and black ice air freshener and whole outside painted from the nicer looking red color to a flat rattle can black. Beautiful ride.
Brake lights would work normally in this situation as the brake light switch is over adjusted. This means the pedal tab hits it too early stopping the pedal from returning to its rest position.
could this possibly be the problem on my 99 ram 2500 what you explain is what happens but if I get out and bleed it out doesn’t matter what caliper I can go till they lock up again
@@DiamondStarWerks yes have to keep down shifting to push thru them. just open one bleeder on the front doesn’t matter which one and they will release and repeat
Nope. Not even close. First, the spring return on the brake petal lever has vastly more force then the little rinky dinky one on the switch that only needs to return a little plastic plunger. If it can't manage that, it's worn out or there's some other problem. Granted that problem could be an unbelievably bad design. As unlikely as that is, I have to concede the possibility. However, and there's no possible argument on this, a slightly depressed brake petal can't lock up the brakes. That's not how they work. I can't believe I even need to point this out.
No, not even close. Your rinky dinky explanation is not cutting it. Take any brake light switch and depress the button all the way in, now try to push the button even more. Can't do it can you? It's not the button that's holding they pedal down it's the entire switch adjusted to far down. The pedal pushes the button in completely and then it's stopped by the switch body before returning to full rest. So it's essentially like someone riding the pedal the time. The brake fluid pressure is not allowed to fully release and hence after multiple depressions of the pedal all four brakes are dragging till it sits long enough to release the pressure. The result of which I've seen 3 different times on the different cars all with the same complaint/symptom and all with the same fault and solution. This is not an argument, it is a fact. I can't believe I even need to explain this to you.
@@DiamondStarWerks LOL. In your own video there's no way to get the body of the switch to depress the brake petal. Do you need to watch it again? The plunger is hitting it, not the body. You don't even know basic hydraulic systems. There's no "pressure release". The master cylinder controls the slave cylinder, as the master moves, so proportionally does the slave. It's essentially a lever, trading distance for force, using fluid instead of a mechanical connection. There's no pressure build up that must be drained by returning to the petal stop, you have no idea how this works. If the brake petal is slightly depressed, there will be a drag on the discs or drums. No lock up.
In my own video I've already fixed the issue. If you twist the switch counter clockwise the body of the switch can be adjusted in or out or completely removed from its bracket. If you can't understand how that works, then that just shows your inexperience and ineptitude to understand what's going on. I understand perfectly how hydraulic brake systems work. You're clearly being too literal with the terms being used. You always just used the words "slave cylinder" while referring to a brake system which shows your inexperience again. Either way if you really want to understand find a car with this style of adjustable switch, adjust it all the way out till it pushes the pedal off its rest position, pump the pedal 5-6 times and try to drive it. Maybe then you'll understand otherwise you're just wasting both of our time.
@@DiamondStarWerks You wanted to argue about this after being challenged over it and I obliged. That was your mistake. I'm not a fan of people posting bogus content in the net for views. If you were correct in your claim that the switch body can be adjusted so far as to depress the brake petal lever and prevent it from returning, you would have shown this in your video instead of telling me to seek out the model and conduct my own experiment. It's a moot point anyway. IN MY FIRST COMMENT I allowed that such an incredibly poor design was a possibility. However, given the other things you've claimed, you have no credibility. It appears you have been corrected about your misunderstanding concerning the necessity for a brake fluid pressure release by returning the petal lever to it's stop. It doesn't build up, so I have no idea what you were thinking. And finally, you've inadvertently settled the matter of which of us knows what they're talking about to anyone reading who doesn't have the knowledge of automobile repair. Google: "Brake master and slave cylinder" and the parts I spoke of will appear. You didn't know what the slave cylinder was. Ooops. Since I'm schooling you, here's the distinction in an automotive brake system. The "piston" of the spool valve in the master cylinder has a much smaller area than the one in the slave cylinder. That means that means for a given amount of fluid displacement, from the master to the slave, the spool valve will travel further in it's bore than the slave cylinder piston will in it's. This is how the mechanical advantage is achieved. It's actually exactly the same as a plane and a pivot, but done with fluid. It trades distance moved for an increase in force. Always thought that was pretty cool, and at the least, someone will get a learning experience out of this exchange. Doesn't have to be entirely negative.

Pristine
Altima energy
Never had one of these but great well made video regardless!!
Whoever replaced the pads and rotors, didn’t they notice something fishy going on with the brake lights?

All four of your wheels are dragging until you release the pressure from a bleed screw?

@@klocke-hx3xlif you’re keen on learning, possessive it is “its”, not “it’s”. It’s also “pedal” but that would be petantic.
