Brake Bleeding: Service and Repair

BRAKE: BRAKE FLUID: BLEEDING

BLEEDING

HINT: If any work is performed on the brake system or if air in the brake lines is suspected, bleed the air from the brake system.

NOTICE:
-

Move the shift lever to the P position and apply the parking brake before bleeding the brakes.

-

Add brake fluid to keep the level between MIN and MAX lines of the reservoir while bleeding the brakes.

-

If brake fluid leaks onto any painted surface, wash or remove it completely.

1. FILL RESERVOIR WITH BRAKE FLUID

(a) Fill the reservoir with brake fluid.

Fluid:
SAE J1703 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT3

2. BLEED MASTER CYLINDER

HINT:
-

If the master cylinder is reinstalled or if the reservoir becomes empty, bleed the air from the master cylinder.

-

To avoid brake fluid from adhering, cover the painted surface with a shop rag or piece of cloth.
