Brake Bleeding: Service Precautions
Hydraulic Brake System Bleeding (ABS W/Traction Control)
Notice:
^
If any brake component is repaired or replaced such that air is allowed to enter the brake system, the entire bleeding procedure must be followed.
^
Use only DOT 3 brake fluid from a clean, sealed container. Do not use any fluid from a container which is wet with water. Do not use DOT 5
silicone brake fluid. Improper brake fluid, mineral oil or water in the fluid may cause the brake fluid to boil or the rubber components to
deteriorate. Keep all fluid containers capped to prevent contamination.
^
Avoid spilling brake fluid on any of the vehicle's painted surfaces, wiring, cables, or electric connectors. Brake fluid will damage the paint and the
electrical connections. If any fluid is spilled on the vehicle, flush the area to lessen the damage.
^
Prior to bleeding the brakes, the front and rear displacement cylinder pistons, on the ABS hydraulic modulator, must be returned to the topmost
position. The TCS hydraulic modulator must be rehomed a minimum of 4 full times. This method uses a Tech 1 to perform the rehoming
procedure. You will not be able to bleed this system without the Tech 1.
