Brake Hose/Line: Service and Repair
Brake Hoses
Brake hoses
To check
For reasons of safety, all brake pipes, brake hoses, connections and fittings must be maintained in perfect condition at all times. All these connections
must therefore be carefully inspected periodically as stipulated in the service schedule. Brake pipes that are secured to the body with plastic clips must
not display any signs of corrosion or pitting or other visible damage. Make sure that all brake line and hose connections are properly tightened and do
not leak. Any damaged parts should be changed.
To remove
Note: The following procedure applies to changing the brake hose on a front wheel. The same principle can be applied to hoses on the rear wheels as
well.
1. Depress the brake pedal slightly using a brake pedal clamp.
Remove fuse No. 1 for the brake lights.
2. Raise the car and remove the wheels on the side where the hose is to be changed.
3. Undo the connection at the brake caliper and the connection between the brake line and brake hose.
4. Plug the brake line.
5. Release the clip and remove the hose.
