    just a question on dual circuit brakes

    If I am getting a pedal strait to the floor on the RRC, should I still be getting the emergency or primary circuit activating in theory?
    Where its sitting is up on a hill with lots of obstacles (boats, trailers and trees) which I dont want to hit obviously. And I need to move it to work on it in relative safety (remove wheels to bleed system).

    I could try low range and hope for the best after a slave flush to see if that helps. But does it sound like a slave issue and would that be affecting the primary (I think it would)?

    G`day ,

    if the pedal is going to the floor , i`d think you`ll have nothing .

    A low pedal solid or spongy will give either primary or secondary depending on the age as in imperial or metric because the masters are mirrored .

    Crook ABS will still give a pedal or low although obviously odd when not right .

    Check the hand/park works it should stop it , if you proceed slowly .

    Yes, otherwise the handbrake assembly can be ripped off the back of the transfer case.

    If the primary circuit is breached but the secondary circuit is intact, the pedal will be very close to the floor giving the impression of no brakes at all, proven by pressing hard on the pedal and gently attempting to drive off.
