[urq] 83 urq Brake issues - where to go now?

[Louis-Alain Richard]

Hi JP,

You can pinpoint a bit further by finding which switch is triggering the
brake light. You can check this by unplugging each switch alternatively and
check for the light to go out.

Another point, you did filled the reservoir correctly with red ATF (10mm
below the top when the bomb is empty) ? I'm sure you did...

The brake light went off for about 3-4 mins (running the engine at idle)

 Pedal felt great, no light, even pumping the pedal fast, felt good etc.

But after about 5 mins, the brake light came back on? 

When I move the steering to either locked side (full left or full right) the
light goes out, but returns comes back on when not full left or right. 

Then when looking around in the engine bay I touched the pump and it was
pretty hot, I followed the lines and the Brake Servo and lines too were also
hot! Is this normal? Anyone have any ideas on what I can look at? Or what
might be going on?


Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks

 

JP
