• Other Names:

  Cap Filler, brfc11

• Description:

  This is the filler cap that seals the top of the brake master cylinder fluid reservoir, keeping moisture, dirt, and airborne contaminants out of the hydraulic brake fluid while a flexible internal diaphragm rises and falls to track fluid level as the pads wear. It is a broad cross-platform Ford part used across 2001-2012 model years on a wide range of SUVs and crossovers built on shared brake hydraulic hardware, including Escape, Explorer, Expedition, Sport Trac, Navigator, Aviator, Mariner, and Mountaineer, which is why it is catalogued as a shared, multi-vehicle component rather than tied to one nameplate or generation. A buyer searching for this part is usually dealing with a cracked or brittle cap, a torn or missing internal diaphragm that lets brake fluid absorb moisture from the air, a cap that no longer seats and seals properly, or a brake fluid warning light triggered by contaminated or aerated fluid caused by a failed seal. Ford's catalog name for this component is Filler Cap, and it is strictly a brake system part for the master cylinder reservoir; the same base part number family is also used elsewhere in the catalog for an unrelated engine oil filler cap, so buyers should always confirm they are ordering the brake reservoir version and not the oil-side equivalent before installing. No special tools are needed to replace it, and it simply threads or snaps onto the reservoir neck by hand.
