Re: BRAKE FALURE 200 1982

Gromit, you said you bench bled it, (I assume you mean the master cylinder.) what about the rest of the system???

I can't say that I never would "just bleed the master cylinder", but I never have.

The switch as I understand it is a pressure differential device and can be tripped by the compressing of air on one side, this is why I am so adamant about a complete bleeding.

Some of these switches must be manually reset, BUT I do not know about the specifics on the one used on your Volvo.

Good luck...

PS, Please if you need a shop, do not go to MIDA__, I hate to see people ripped off.
