Brake System -Brake System4-79Chapter 9 Brake SystemSection 1 Brake SystemI. Precaution 1. It's very important to keep the parts and area clean when repairing the brake system.
2. Care must be taken to replace each part properly as it could affect the performance of the brake system and
result in a driving hazard.
3. Do not let brake fluid remain on a painted surface when repairing any parts. Wash it off immediately.
4. If any work is done on the brake system or air in the brake pipelines is suspected, bleed the system of air.
5. Check the brake system for leakage after repairing the brake system.
6. Use specified brake fluid. Do not mix with other brand of brake fluid.II. Symptom table Use the table below to help you find the cause of the problem. The numbers indicate the priority of the likely
cause of the problem. Check each part in order. If necessary, replace these parts.Symptom

9. Brake master cylinder (faulty)

Bleeding1. Fill brake reservoir with brake fluid
Brake fluid: HZY4 complying with GB12981Section 2 Brake FluidBrake System -Brake Fluid4-812. Bleed brake pipeline system
(1) Connect the vinyl pipe to the wheel cylinder bleeder plug port
(2) Depress the brake pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder plug with the pedal held down.
(3) At the point when fluid stops flowing out, tighten the bleeder plug, and then release the brake pedal.
(4) Repeat (2) and (3) until all the air in the fluid has been bled out.
(5) Repeat the above procedure to bleed the brake pipeline of the air for each wheel cylinder.
Notice: Fill brake fluid into the reservoir all the time when bleeding.
3. Check fluid level in reservoir
Check the fluid level and fill fluid if necessary.
Tips: Do not mix and use with other brand of brake fluid.

special tool and the vacuum booster.
Tips:
If there is clearance between the special tool body and the booster hull, it means that the clearance is
standard value. If there is no chalk trace on the booster push bar, it means that the clearance exceeds the
standard value.
