BRAKE FLUID ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE

  1. INSPECT BRAKE FLUID LEVEL IN RESERVOIR

    1. C201795

      Check the fluid level.

      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.

      Brake Fluid

      SAE J1704 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT 4

      Note:

      If using a dropper to adjust the fluid amount, make sure that the dropper has not been used with mineral oils, water or deteriorated brake fluid. Sealed areas may deteriorate and lead to fluid leaks, or the fluid may deteriorate and lead to decreased efficiency.
