no right turn

Maybe try swapping pads side to side, if possible, and see if the problem changes sides.

cleaned the pads and that helped quite a bit but still not turning as good as she do left. maybe some air in the system? should i give them a bleed and see what happens?

Bleeding them wont hurt. Were the pads glazed or have grease on them?

**curtisbyrne** · 10-22-2017 08:28 PM

they were kinda shiny? but did also have alot of grease. also my volt meter shows little over 12 then when i turn the brake fan on it drops suddenly to 11?

What machine are you playing with, Your Magnum or the I/C ?

Did this machine work good before you adjusted it?

Did you change the gear oil and was it full of a silver hue?

Tell the whole story.

this is my magnum.it worked good when i put it into maintenance but the right handle was always spongy but worked decent. this time it didnt work at all. tranny fluid is good and clean,juts nice clean gear oil. keys ways were good,chains are good.all tires spin as they should. like i said after wiping the pads free of grease it worked somewhat better than before but still not up to par. i think the key to my problem is the sponginess in my brake lever?

Well then replace the dot5 fluid and bleed the brakes, clean the pads with some brakleen, or preferably replace the brake pads. Adjust the plungers Per the manual.

None of this should cause a vibration or noise unless the pads are metal to metal.

the vibration was only when i applied little pressure,pads were jumping the rotor
