ADD BRAKE FLUID
| Fluid |
|---|
| SAE J1703 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT3 or equivalent |
Note
Do not remove the filter from the brake master cylinder reservoir and be sure to fill with new brake fluid to avoid any potential contamination of the brake system. Contamination, for example by dirt particles or mineral oil, could lead to functional brake problems.
BLEED BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER
Tech Tips
If the master cylinder has been disassembled or if the reservoir becomes empty, bleed the air from the master cylinder.
Using a union nut wrench, disconnect the brake lines from the master cylinder.
Slowly depress the brake pedal and hold it there.
Block the outer holes with your fingers, and release the brake pedal.
Remove your fingers. Slowly depress the brake pedal and hold it again. Block the outer holes with your fingers and release the brake pedal. Repeat this procedure 3 or 4 times.
| *a | Torque Wrench Fulcrum Length |
Using a union nut wrench, connect the brake lines to the master cylinder.
Tech Tips
Calculate the torque wrench reading when changing the fulcrum length of the torque wrench Click here.
When using a union nut wrench (fulcrum length of 22 mm (0.8661 in.)) + torque wrench (fulcrum length of 162 mm (6.3779 in.)): 13 N*m (137 kgf*cm, 10 ft.*lbf)
BLEED BRAKE LINE
Connect the vinyl tube to the bleeder plug.
Depress the brake pedal several times and loosen the bleeder plug with the pedal held down.
At the point where the fluid stops coming out, tighten the bleeder plug and release the brake pedal.
Repeat this procedure until the air in the brake fluid is completely bled out.
Tighten the bleeder plug.
Front bleeder plug:
Rear bleeder plug:
Repeat the above procedure to bleed the air out of the brake line for each wheel.
INSPECT BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
Check the fluid level and add fluid if necessary.
| Fluid |
|---|
| SAE J1703 or FMVSS No.116 DOT3 or equivalent |
Note
Do not remove the filter from the brake master cylinder reservoir and be sure to fill with new brake fluid to avoid any potential contamination of the brake system. Contamination, for example by dirt particles or mineral oil, could lead to functional brake problems.

INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL HEIGHT
Check brake pedal height.
| Pedal height from floor |
|---|
| 151 to 161 mm (5.945 to 6.339 in.) for left hand drive |
| 154 to 164 mm (6.063 to 6.457 in.) for right hand drive |
ADJUST BRAKE PEDAL HEIGHT
Disconnect the stop light switch connector.
Turn the stop light switch assembly counter-clockwise and remove it.
Remove the brake booster Click here.
Loosen the push rod lock nut.
Adjust the pedal height by turning the pedal push rod clevis.
Tighten the push rod lock nut.
Install the brake booster Click here.
Insert the stop light switch into the adjuster until it slightly touches the cushion.
CAUTION:
Do not depress the brake pedal.
Turn the stop light switch assembly clockwise by approximately 90°.
CAUTION:
Do not depress the brake pedal.
Connect the stop light switch connector.
Check the clearance of the shaft.
| Clearance |
|---|
| 0.5 to 2.6 mm (0.020 to 0.102 in.) |
INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL FREE PLAY
Stop the engine and depress the brake pedal several times until there is no more vacuum left in the booster.
Push in the pedal until the beginning of the resistance is felt. Measure the distance as shown in the illustration.
| Pedal free play |
|---|
| 1.0 to 6.0 mm (0.039 to 0.236 in.) |
INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL RESERVE DISTANCE
Stop the engine and depress the brake pedal several times until there is no more vacuum left in the booster.
Release the parking brake handle.
With the engine running, depress the pedal and measure the pedal reserve distance as shown in the illustration.
| Pedal reserve distance from floor |
|---|
| More than 117 mm (4.61 in.) at 500 N (51 kgf, 112.5 lbf) for left hand drive |
| More than 120 mm (4.72 in.) at 500 N (51 kgf, 112.5 lbf) for right hand drive |
Note
Remove the floor mat before measuring the distance.
