We are able to arrange servicing on your IQ7 / Sensabrake Actuator.
You will need to purchase this product which covers the Assessment Fee.
Once purchased we will book in your repair / assessment, notify ALKO NZ of the repair and send you the address & reference to send your actuator.
They will then assess the actuator and advise us of the issue, if able to be repaired the cost of the repair and return freight. We will liase direct with you and arrange the payment for the repair / service.
Allow a week for an assessment.
Note: Repairs are no longer available for the old Sensabrake Actuator (the short silver model with the red handbrake on top) as seals are no longer available. Please contact us for replacement options.
Note: Always monitor the brake fluid level in the reservoir so that the actuator is not run without fluid. Running the unit without fluid will ingest air into the brake system that must be removed by bleeding
WARNING: Correct bleeding of the actuator is critical as trapped air greatly reduces the efficiency of the brakes. When the bleeding process is complete, check all bleeder screws to ensure that they are secure and do not leak. Failure to properly install, bleed, operate and maintain your AL-KO iQ7 braking system can cause malfunction resulting in possible serious or fatal injuries and/or property damage.
The IQ7 actuator should never be used to bleed the braking system as this may damage the compressor
Drum Brakes
If drum brakes are being used, a residual line pressure valve (obtain from a brake specialist) must be installed in the hydraulic line. This must be located BEFORE any split in the hydraulic line immediately after or as close as practical to the master cylinder port.
