Brake Proportioning/Combination Valve: Service and Repair
Without Antilock Brakes
OVERVIEW
The components of the proportioning valve assembly are not serviceable or replaceable. If a component of the proportioning valve assembly is not
functioning properly, the proportioning valve must be replaced as an assembly.
REMOVAL
1. Using a brake pedal depressor, move and lock the brake pedal to a position past its first 1 inch of travel. This will prevent brake fluid from
draining out of the master cylinder when the brake tubes are removed from the proportioning valve.
2. Raise vehicle on jackstands or centered on a hoist. See Hoisting in Maintenance.
CAUTION: Before removing the brake tubes from the proportioning valve, the proportioning valve and the brake tubes must be thoroughly
cleaned. This is required to prevent contamination from entering the proportioning valve or the brake tubes.
3. Remove the 4 chassis brake tubes from the inlet and outlet ports of the proportioning valve.
4. Remove the 2 bolts attaching the proportioning valve to the proportioning valve mounting bracket. Remove the proportioning valve from the
mounting bracket.
