I noticed that I didn`t have any back brakes on my brougham the other day.
The pedal reaches the floor, can still can feel the front brakes.
Lucky I was close to home.
I`ve checked brake fluid and all ok, no leaking of wheel cyclinders.
please help.

If you have discs on the front you will have a proportioning valve either built into the master cylinder or separately mounted in the engine bay, this is most likely the problem if youre not losing fluid.

Get to a mechanic ASAP.

You only have to be in front at the end of the race.

There is no proportioning valve on HK/T/G models.

The problem is youve got air in the system or you have a faulty master cylinder.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0
