CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
The necessary procedures (adjustment, calibration, initialization, or registration) that must be performed after parts are removed, installed, or replaced during the rear brake removal/installation are shown below.
| Replacement Part or Procedure | Necessary Procedure | Effect/Inoperative when not Performed | Link |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rear disc (Including removal and installation) | Parking brake bedding | Electric parking brake system |
When the brake pedal is first depressed after replacing the brake pads or pushing back the disc brake piston, DTC C1341, C1342, C1343 and/or C1344 may be stored. As there is no malfunction, clear the DTCs.
While the auxiliary battery is connected, even if the power switch is off, the brake control system activates when the brake pedal is depressed or the door courtesy switch is turned on. Therefore, even if only brake pads are to be removed and installed, be sure to remove the brake booster pump connectors before beginning work.
Use the same procedure for the RH and LH sides, except where indicated.
The following procedure is for the LH side.
