#109 of 116 Re: no rear brakes [bowhunterjeff] by redmann1 Sep 05, 2009 (7:15 pm)
Replying to: bowhunterjeff (Jun 03, 2009 10:12 am) I just read about your problem . I got the same 94 Ranger with the same problem . I kept opening brake lines till I got to the abs valve on driver side frame rail. No fluid would come out of it . Did you change this valve ? If so did it fix the problem? This valve costs close to $ 200.00 don't need to throw parts at the problem especially when they cost $200.bucks
#110 of 116 New Brake Problem 2002 Ranger 3.0L by ptclerk Sep 29, 2009 (5:00 pm)
I have a 2002 Ranger 2WD with a brake problem that has stumped my mechanic. When I back down my steep driveway in the morning (rpms above 1200) my brake pedal can reach the mechanical stop without locking up my brakes. I slow down, but if driving fast down the driveway I find that I can't completely stop. All four brakes have been inspected along with the master cylinder and fluids. Brakes are pressing 60/40 front/back. My mechanic (private shop with 25+ years experience) has never had such a problem, and didn't find any alerts from Ford that address the problem. Anyone encounter such a problem? Got a fix for it? Replies to this message: rangerdanger2 (Sep 30, 2009 3:16 pm) buster15 (Sep 30, 2009 6:10 pm)

#113 of 116 94 ranger by bill87 Oct 07, 2009 (11:20 am)
I have no back brakes. I cannot get brake fluid to the rear brakes. I have plenty of fluid. I do have fluid going to the thing under the drivers seat. I do not have fluid coming out of it. I assume that it is bad, but I have no idea what to call it. Anybody know what it is called or ever have this problem? Replies to this message: bolivar (Oct 26, 2009 7:49 pm)
#114 of 116 ford ranger brake in period by itaskakid Oct 21, 2009 (5:44 am)
Just bought 2009 ford ranger and enjoy it very much. For the braking system on this truck is there any precautions that i should take when breaking this truck in? Replies to this message: bolivar (Oct 26, 2009 7:52 pm)

Replying to: bill87 (Oct 07, 2009 11:20 am) This truck, if like my 94, has rear wheel ABS. You probably have air in the ABS pump. You cannot get the air out with a 'regular' 'open a bleeder and pump the pedal' procedure.   You are going to have to take it to a shop that has the correct tech tool. This tool will activate the ABS pump to push the air out. You cannot do this manually.

Replying to: itaskakid (Oct 21, 2009 5:44 am) Read the owner's manual for break-in processes.   It will probably say to not use 'excessive braking' for the first 500 miles. In other words, do not do several high speed braking passes or descend a long, steep hill for the first few miles. But the ABS should keep you from 'locking up' the brakes from a high speed stop....
