← TechnologyWhich risk increases in a hydraulic brake system when accumulator pre-charge pressure is too low?
A)Reduced braking force and longer stopping distances✓
B)Premature wear of master cylinder seals
C)Overheating of brake fluid due to turbulence
D)Increased risk of ABS malfunction
💡 Explanation
When accumulator pre-charge pressure is too low, the accumulator's ability to store energy through gas compression is reduced because the gas volume available for compression is less, leading to decreased energy and reduced braking force. Therefore, reduced braking force results, rather than seal wear, overheating, or ABS malfunction, which are linked to system overpressure or electrical issues.
