Escalade AWD V8-6.0L Hybrid (2010)
Note: Approximately 2.5-3.0 L (2.6-3.2 qt) of brake fluid will be used throughout this procedure. Ensure there is an adequate supply of brake
fluid in the J-29532-A or J 29532.
13. Inspect the fluid level in the J-29532-A or J 29532. Clean the outside of the J-29532-A or J 29532 and add GM approved or equivalent DOT-3
brake fluid from a clean, sealed brake fluid container, as necessary.
14. Clean the outside of the master cylinder reservoir on and around the reservoir cap prior to removing the cap and diaphragm.
Note: Do not pressurize the J-29532-A or J 29532 and thereby the master cylinder reservoir until instructed to do so by the scan tool.
15. Install the J 35589-A and the J-29532-A or J 29532 to the vehicle.
Note: Ensure a MINIMUM of 200 kPa (30 psi) of pressure is MAINTAINED in the J-29532-A or J 29532 throughout this procedure, except as
instructed.
16. Set the pressure regulator of the J-29532-A or charge the air tank of the J 29532 to 200 kPa (30 psi).
17. Open the J-29532-A or J 29532 fluid tank valve to allow pressurized brake fluid to enter the brake system.
18. Wait approximately 30 seconds, then inspect the entire hydraulic brake system to ensure there are no existing external brake fluid leaks.
19. Secure bleeder hoses to all 4 brake caliper bleeder valves.
20. Bleed each of the 4 brake corners using the J-29532-A or J 29532 in the following sequence. Ensure the brake fluid is clear and free of air bubbles
at each corner.
1. Left front
2. Right front
3. Left rear
4. Right rear
21. Ensure each of the 4 brake caliper bleeder valves are tightened securely.
22. Press Start to begin the system automated bleed steps.
Follow all instructions on the scan tool. Only apply the brake pedal when instructed to do so by the scan tool.
23. When instructed, firmly apply and release the brake pedal using smooth, consistent full brake pedal strokes.
The brake pedal will go fully to the floor with some pedal feedback felt. The master cylinder reservoir supply circuit is being flushed through these
steps.
24. Continue the brake applications until instructed by the scan tool.
The scan tool will instruct to perform 10 brake applies.
25. When instructed by the scan tool, stop performing the brake applications and press Enter.
The scan tool will instruct to perform Steps 23-25 2 more times.
26. When instructed by the scan tool, press Start to continue.
Note: The hydraulic brake system will be under high pressure during the next bleed sequence. Ensure the bleeder hose is maintained securely to
the bleeder valve, and open the bleeder valve slowly.
27. Following the instructions on the scan tool, open the left rear (LR) brake caliper bleeder valve.
28. With the bleeder valve open and the bleeder hose maintained firmly in place, press Start to begin the bleeding process.
This process will run in a 30-second cycle. The pump and HPA circuits are being flushed during these steps.
29. Press Enter when instructed to repeat the bleeding process 5 more times on the scan tool.
30. Press Enter when instructed at the end of the 6th bleeding process.
31. Ensure the LR brake caliper bleeder valve is tightened securely.
32. Reduce the charge in the air tank of the J-29532-A or J 29532 to 0 kPa (0 psi).
33. Press Start to continue.
The brake pedal simulator circuit is being flushed through this step.
34. Place shop cloths beneath the master cylinder brake pipe connections to protect the vehicle from the brake fluid expelled during the next sequence.
35. When instructed by the scan tool, set the pressure regulator of the J-29532-A or charge the air tank of the J 29532 to 200 kPa (30 psi).
