DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Hydraulic Brake Actuation
CAUTION: Blistering or swelling of rubber brake components may indicate contamination
of the brake fluid by a petroleum based substance. New rubber components must be installed
in the hydraulic brake system if contaminated and the entire hydraulic brake system must be
flushed with clean brake fluid to prevent recontamination.
This vehicle is equipped with a brake pedal actuated dual brake system. The system consists of the
following:
zpower brake booster (2005)
z brake master cylinder (2140)
z brake pressure control valve (2B091)
z disc brake calipers (2B120)
z rear disc brake calipers (2553)
z brake tubes and hoses
