Clutch: Mechanical friction device that engages or disengages the engine from the transmission.
Read more
It is located between the engine and the gearbox. It is used to disengage the engine, which prevents the movement to be transmitted to the gearbox while the gear shifts are made. Roughly speaking, it is the piece that disengages the engine from the wheels when the driver presses on the clutch pedal.
I keep losing pressure in my clutch i just brought the car. Ive been told by the previous owner that its leaking. Is it a big problem or should i just buy the slave master cylinder and get a mechanic to replace it or what do you think. Thank you
No crank no start. Several issues have risen since the truck originally brokedown. At some point someone insisted on pushing in the clutch pedal to switch gears but only snapped the plastic shaft going to slave cylinder and electronic switch. Additionally they broke part of the clutch switch although it does still connect. Another issue was that the neg terminal wire was grounded to the outside of the starter which I'm not sure but did that cause wiring issues. Unfortunately on top of that just below the ignition cylinder there was a single black wire that is connected to some type of connector that mounts to make contact with the cylinder itself that no longer is as attached
So I managed to fix grounding issues at starter, replaced some fuses and placement of the entire fuse box fuses, jumped my battery and started my truck at the solenoid. However even with shifter making it seem as if it's in gear the truck won't move???
Engine on, clutch engages and running, no fan engagement, AC doesn't work. However, when battery is disconnect/connect after 10min, AC works in idle fan working and AC stops when RPM is raised but clutch still running no cooling.
Cannot find specific schematics or ford factory part #’s for individual relays. Specifically, wipers, PCM, starter, blower motor, fuel pump, AC clutch, fog lights, trailer battery charger,
I'm not getting any signal voltage to the compressor relay or the condenser fan relay. There are no high, low pressure switches and the refrigerant charge is good. I can jump out the relays to get both condenser and compressor clutch to engage. What sends the signal to both components?
