Nissan Frontier Brake Proportioning Valve

The Nissan Frontier Brake Proportioning Valve serves to stabilize the pickup by preventing the rear wheels from locking when you step on the brake. While a panic stop occurs, the Brake Proportioning Valve reacts to the increasing master-cylinder pressure. At that pressure, a spring slides a piston that seals an internal port, restricting fluid to the rear drums while full force goes to the loaded front discs. The Brake Proportioning Valve on many Frontier models is located close to the master cylinder or inside the combination block with shared lines for compactness and ease of servicing. Over the years, there were two different styles that appeared: the fixed Brake Proportioning Valve on regular trims and the adjustable or lever version. The fixed unit is factory set for daily Nissan use, while the adjustable unit allows owners to tweak the rear pressure via knob or linkage whenever Frontier payload or tire size changes. When a Brake Proportioning Valve jams up with age, regardless of the type, it will no longer be able to shift pressure. This is likely to cause sudden uncommanded skids on the part of the Nissan pickup truck. Similarly, jammed parts can be caused by corroded cap screws and trapped debris.

Nissan Frontier Brake Proportioning Valve Parts Questions & Experts Answers

  • Q: How to remove, replace, and install the Brake Proportioning Valve on the Nissan Frontier?
    A:
    Raise the vehicle and support it securely, then unscrew the nuts and remove the bolt. Disconnect the height sensing spring and loosen the tube nuts. Pull the Brake Lines away and plug the ends, then remove the Brake Proportioning Valve mounting bolts. Unbolt the Brake Proportioning Valve, disconnect the spring, and installation is reverse of removal. Tighten the bolts, lubricate the spring and bolt, then bleed the brake system. Lower the vehicle, roll it back and forth, then have one person sit in the driver's seat and another person stand on the rear bumper. Crawl under the vehicle and push the Brake Proportioning Valve lever against the bolt, then measure the distance from one end of the spring to the other. Reposition the bracket as necessary, and check the brakes in an isolated area before driving.
