FILL RESERVOIR WITH BRAKE FLUID
Remove the brake master cylinder reservoir filler cap.
Fill the reservoir with brake fluid.
| Brake Fluid |
|---|
| SAE J1703 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT 3 |
Note
Make sure that there is sufficient brake fluid in the reservoir.
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 problem.
BLEED BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER
Note
To prevent brake fluid from damaging painted surfaces, cover any surrounding parts with a piece of cloth.
Be sure to clean your hands before bleeding from master cylinder to avoid any potential contamination of the brake system. Contamination, for example by dirt particles or mineral oil, could lead to functional brake problem.
Tech Tips
If the master cylinder is reinstalled or runs out of brake fluid, bleed the master cylinder.
Using a union nut wrench, disconnect the 2 brake tubes from the brake master cylinder assembly.
Slowly depress the brake pedal and hold it down.
Cover the 2 tube holes with your fingers and release the brake pedal.
Uncover the holes, slowly depress the brake pedal and hold it down. While holding down the brake pedal, cover the tube holes again. Repeat this step 3 or 4 times.
Using a union nut wrench, connect the 2 brake tubes to the brake master cylinder assembly.
Note
Do not bend or damage the brake lines.
Do not allow brake line to twist and interfere with other parts or body during tightening.
Do not allow any foreign matter such as dirt or dust to enter the brake line.

BLEED BRAKE LINE
Note
Bleed the brake line of the wheel farthest from the master cylinder first.
Connect a vinyl tube to the bleeder plug.
Depress the brake pedal several times, and while holding down the brake pedal, loosen the bleeder plug*1.
When fluid stops coming out, tighten the bleeder plug and release the brake pedal*2.
Repeat steps *1 and *2 until all the air in the brake fluid is completely bled out and the new brake fluid comes out.
Tighten the bleeder plug completely.
Repeat the above steps to replace the brake fluid of the brake lines for each wheel.
INSPECT FOR BRAKE FLUID LEAK
INSPECT FLUID LEVEL IN RESERVOIR
| *1 | MAX Line |
| *2 | MIN Line |
Check the fluid level.
Tech Tips
If brake fluid level is lower than the MIN line, check for leaks and inspect the disc brake pads. If necessary, refill the reservoir with brake fluid to the MAX line after repair or replacement.
