Bleed brake line
Remove the bleeder plug cap.
Connect a vinyl tube to the bleeder plug.
Depress the brake pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder plug with the pedal depressed.*1
When fluid stops coming out, tighten the bleeder plug, and then release the brake pedal.*2
Repeat *1 and *2 until all the air in the fluid is completely bled out.
Tighten the bleeder plug completely.
| 10 N*m | 102 kgf*cm | 7 ft.*lbf |
Install the bleeder plug cap.
Repeat the above procedure for each wheel to bleed the brake line.
Bleed brake actuator (w/ VSC)
After bleeding the brake system, if the specified height or feel of the brake pedal cannot be obtained, bleed the brake actuator assembly with the intelligent tester by following the procedure below.
Depress the brake pedal more than 20 times with the ignition switch off.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Do not start the engine.
Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRC / Utility / Air Bleeding.
Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual for further details.
