Teves system on car other than a SC, '89 Lincoln MKVII. Physically identical to the SC. This is my hoopty 225k salt anode car, gotta have one here in the heart of the rust belt. The anti lock system has not been functional for years.
The failure is the THIRD time over around 70k mi that the passenger front caliper has locked up. This last one Failed after less than 5000 miles. It seems suspect to me that it is the same caliper every time.
So... My question is, is there anything in the teves system that could fail to cause ONE front caliper to lock up? If i understand the system, it controls both rears, or both fronts together to control lockup, so should not effect calipers side to side.
At this point I am thinking mechanical problem with the usual suspects, caliper, collapsed hose, or slider surfaces (pins and spindle). I just wanted to check with the incredible knowledge base here to see if I was missing anything with teves before I threw more new parts $$$s at it.
Thanks
Adam
