4. CHECK THAT PEDAL RESERVE DISTANCE IS CORRECT,
AS SHOWN
Release the parking brake.
With the engine running, depress the pedal and measure the
pedal reserve distance, as shown.
Pedal reserve distance at 490 N (50 kgf, 110.2 lbf):
More than 89 mm (3.50 in.)
If the reserve distance is incorrect, troubleshoot the brake
system.
BRAKE BOOSTER OPERATIONAL TEST
BR03P±0B
1. OPERATING CHECK
(a)  Depress the bake pedal  several times with the engine off and
check that there is no change in the pedal reserve distance.
(b)  Depress the brake pedal and start the engine. If the pedal goes down slightly, operation is normal.
2.  AIR TIGHTNESS CHECK
(a)  Start the engine and stop it after 1 or 2 minutes. Depress the brake pedal several times slowly. If the pedal goes down the
farthest the 1st time, but gradually rises after the 2nd or 3rd
time, the booster is air tight.
(b)  Depress the brake pedal while the engine is running, and stop the engine with the pedal depressed. If there is no
change  in the pedal reserve travel after holding the pedal for
30 seconds, the booster is air tight.
BRAKE SYSTEM BLEEDING
BR0ED±04
HINT: If any work is done on the brake system or if air in the
brake lines is suspected, bleed the system of air.
NOTICE: Do not let brake fluid remain on painted sur-
faces. Wash it off immediately.
1. REMOVE RESERVOIR CAP Turn the reservoir cap to the ªopenº side and remove it.
2.  FILL RESERVOIR WITH BRAKE FLUID
Fluid:  SAE J1703 or FMVSS NO.116DOT3

TRAC CONTROL SYSTEM BLEEDING
BR0EE±03
1.  BLEED TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEMCAUTION:
w The fluid is under high pressure, and could spray out with
great force, so exercise caution.
w When repairing the brake master cylinder or TRAC
system, bleed the air out of the TRAC system.
(a)  Connect  a vinyl tube to the bleeder plug of accumulator, then
loosen the bleeder plug.
(b)  Start the engine to allow the TRAC pump motor to operate
until all the air has been bled out of the fluid.
(c)  Tighten the bleeder plug and stop the engine.
Torque: 8.3 N Vm (85 kgf Vcm, 74 in. Vlbf)
(d) C onnect a vinyl tube to the bleeder plug of the TRAC
actuator, then loosen the bleeder plug.
(e)  Start the engine to allow the TRAC pump motor to operate
until all the air has been bled out of the fluid.
(f)  Tighten the bleeder plug and stop the engine. Torque: 8.3 N Vm (85 kgf Vcm, 74 in. Vlbf)
(g) Check if  any diagnostic trouble code is output which indicates
trouble. If there is, clear the diagnostic trouble code.
2.  CHECK FLUID LEVEL IN RESERVOIR Check the fluid level and add fluid if necessary.
Fluid:
SAE J1703 or FMVSS NO. 116DOT3
HINT: Add fluid with the engine idling.

SPEED SENSOR SIGNAL CHECK
1.  Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2.  Using SST, connect terminals Ts and E1 of DLC1.SST 09843±18020
3.  Start the engine.
4.  Check that the ABS warning light blinks. HINT: If the ABS warning light does not blink, inspect the ABS
warning light circuit (see page  BR±144).
5.  Drive vehicle straight forward. HINT: Drive vehicle faster than 45 km/h (28 mph) for several
seconds.
6.  Stop the vehicle.
7.  Using SST, connect terminals Tc and E1 of DLC1.
SST 09843±18020
8.  Read the number of blinks of the ABS warning light. HINT: See the list of diagnosis trouble codes shown on the
next page.
If every sensor is normal, a normal code is output (A cycle of
0.25 sec. on and 0.25 sec. OFF is repeated).
If 2 or more malfunction are indicated at the same time, the
lowest numbered code will be displayed 1st.
9.  After performing the check, disconnect terminals Ts and E1,Tc and E1 of DLC1, and ignition switch turned off.

COMPRESSION CHECK
EG21U±02
HINT: If there is lack of power, excessive oil consumption or
poor fuel economy, measure the compression pressure.
1.  WARM UP AND STOP ENGINE Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating tempera-
ture.
2. DISCONNECT NEGATIVE TERMINAL CABLE FROM BATTERY
CAUTION: Work must be started after 90 seconds from
the time the ignition switch is turned to the ªLOCKº posi-
tion and the negative (±) terminal cable is disconnected
from the battery.
3.  REMOVE INTAKE AIR CONNECTOR
(a)  Disconnect the following hoses: (1)  Air hose from IAC valve
(2) Air  hose (from air control valve on PS pump) from intake
air connector
(b)  Remove the bolt holding the intake air connector to the cylinder head cover.
(c)  Remove the 2 hose clamps.
(d)  Disconnect  the intake air connector from the throttle body
and air cleaner hose, and remove the intake air connector.
4.  REMOVE UPPER HIGH±TENSION CORD COVER
(a)  Remove the 2 bolts.
(b) Disconnect   the front side claw groove of the upper cord cover
from the claw of lower cord cover, and remove the upper cord
cover.
