Both Tips Performance
Specializing in Fiesta ST's let me know of anything I can help you with.
Lines loosened intentionally to have a visual reference on pressure please read. If you watch the video, I have all of the individual brake lines to each individual wheel after the ABS module loose. The three that are still threaded and loose all leak fluid when the brake pedal is pressed. The third one in the row I have the line completely off and absolutely no fluid comes out of it.
After swapping the ABS module recalibrating everything and reprogramming it to the car, everything works as it should and the car stops properly without pulling in either direction. This is definitely something many of you should look out for as an issue. I’ve also seen where the valve to one individual wheel get stuck closed with pressure in the system locking the brakes up.
This particular fiesta had the left front wheel fall off after a Ford dealership replaced the swaybar end link and the tie rod on that same side. Insurance ended up totaling the car because of this, seriously…
After fixing multiple minor issues as well as replacing the front fender I took the car for a test drive had no warning lights, weird noises or issues. Other than the fact when you would hit the brakes, the car would pull to the left and it would not stop for its life. I have sold many ABS modules over the years many more so in the last six months to a year for whatever reason. But the cars have been getting older obviously and it seems like this is becoming more of an issue, especially on the 14’s and 15’s most likely just because of their age.
Hope everyone’s having a great Sunday. I’m just happy this FiST can now stop properly again.
