Stratus Coupe V6-3.0L VIN H (2001)
Brake Proportioning/Combination Valve: Testing and Inspection
1. Connect two pressure gauges, one each to the input side and output side of the proportioning valve, as shown.
2. Air bleed the brake line and the pressure gauge.
3. While gradually depressing the brake pedal, make the following measurements and check to be sure that the measured values are within the
allowable range.
1. Output fluid pressure begins to drop relative to input fluid pressure (split point).
Standard value: 2.7 - 3.2 MPa (391 - 462 psi)
2. Check that the output fluid pressure is at standard value when the input fluid pressure indicates 9.8 MPa (1,422 psi).
Standard value: 4.3 - 5.1 MPa (619 - 732 psi)
3. Output fluid pressure difference between left and right brake lines.
Limit: 0.4 MPa (57 psi)
4. If the measured fluid pressures are not within allowable ranges, replace the proportioning valve.
