1.¿Cómo se conectan las pinzas de freno al resto del sistema de frenos?
The caliper assembly is usually located inside the wheel and is connected to the master cylinder by tubes, hoses and valves that direct brake fluid through the system. We could continue talking about brake calipers for days on end, but we'll show some restraint. Here's what you really need to know: Your brake calipers are very important.
2.¿Cuándo reemplazar las pinzas de freno?
En condiciones normales de manejo, el calor generado por el sistema de frenos puede debilitar y romper los sellos dentro de las pinzas con el tiempo.
If you don't drive often, they can get rusted, stained or dirty and start leaking brake fluid.
Sin embargo, debe revisar sus frenos de inmediato si experimenta alguno de los siguientes:
△Your brakes keep squeaking, squeaking, or rubbing
△Your brake or anti-lock braking system (ABS) warning light comes on
△Your car jerks or pulls to one side when braking
△You need to hit the brakes for them to work
△Your brake pedal feels unusually soft, squishy, or hard
△You notice a brake fluid leak around the wheels or the engine bay
