    Tech Tips

    If the master cylinder has been disassembled or if the reservoir becomes empty, bleed the air from the master cylinder.


    1. A0135Y5

      Using a 10 mm union nut wrench, separate the brake tubes from the master cylinder (w/o VSC).

    2. Using a 12 mm union nut wrench, separate the brake tubes from the master cylinder (w/ VSC).

    3. A0137VF

      Slowly depress the brake pedal and hold it there (Step A).
