What does it mean if you suddenly lose braking pressure?

J

juntjoo on Jan 27, 2019

Never had this happen to me before. It's a 03 mazda b3000 pickup. I was working last night which involves starting and driving my truck shortly, turning it off then repeating. And suddenly after starting it one time I find my brakes spongy and that I've got very low level of fluid in the MC. I dont have the truck on me, I left it at work and will ride my motorcycle to it today to work on it. I read somewhere it could have to do with some auto setting drum brake function that you can remedy by pumping the brakes while going in reverse, which I'll try first which would be great if it works, but if not would this most likely be some sort of failure somewhere in the system like a leak at some point that just suddenly busted? That's what I'd imagine although from a quick check with my phone camera(wasn't willing last night to wiggle my body under the truck) I didn't see any obvious fluid having leaked. I guess I'm hoping like the drum brake quick fix there might be something else(if not the drum brake system) that just fell out of order that won't require replacing any parts and I won't have to trap my tool box to my bike. [left]What are the top most likely situations I've got going on here? I am going to bring as many tools as possible just in case, but just wanted to get a better idea of what I could be dealing with.

New and adding outside lights to my Ram

I'm new here so if this didn't belong here please move it. I want to add Puddle lights to my Ram. I want them to come on when I unlock my doors. Now I was going to tap into my courtesy lights in the cab but I don't want the puddle lights to come on when I turn on my done lights with the switch. So if there a device I can use? Thanks for your timeRead More
