Neglected replacement of brake fluid causes corrosion of the system. Over time, water enters the system. Even a few percent of it in the liquid generates corrosion in the system. Particles of corroded material move in the liquid, effectively clogging and blocking the valves operating in the ABS pump. What's worse, the ABS computer operating in the system receives incorrect information, which may result in it overheating and ultimately damaging it. Therefore, it is extremely important to replace the brake fluid, thanks to which we get rid of impurities. We also flush the system before refilling it.
Unfortunately, this will not help if the pump is already clogged. In such a case, the repair is carried out by our service center. It is best to send it for regeneration together with the controller, which we can also check at the same time. It is best to consult such a service with our technician, who will help you and advise you on the best repair method.
