FILL RESERVOIR WITH BRAKE FLUID
Remove the brake master cylinder reservoir filler cap assembly.
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.
BLEED BRAKE LINE
Note
Bleed the brake line of the wheel farthest from the master cylinder first.
Add brake fluid to keep the level between the MIN and MAX lines of the reservoir while bleeding the brakes.
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.
Repeat the above procedure for each wheel to bleed the brake line.
INSPECT FOR BRAKE FLUID LEAK
INSPECT FLUID LEVEL
Check the fluid level.
If the 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.
