GENERAL DESCRIPTION
BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM35A-2
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONM1351000100440
The brake system has been designed to give greater
reliability and durability and to provide excellent brak-
ing performance.
FEATURES
.
Improved braking performance
1. An 8+9 inch tandem brake booster provides suffi-
cient braking force in sudden braking range.
2. 296mm front ventilated disc brakes provide sta-
ble braking force and improved braking feel.
3. 303mm rear ventillated disc brakes are used.
.
Improved stability
1. A 4-wheel anti-lock braking system (4ABS) pre-
vents slipping caused by the vehicle wheels lock-
ing up, in order to maintain a stable vehicle
posture and steering performance.
2. An electronic brake-force distribution (EBD)
makes it possible to maintain the maximum
amount of braking force even when the vehicle's
load is unevenly distributed. 3. Front- and rear-wheel X-type brake line layout
are used.
4. Ventilated discs brakes improve anti-fading per-
formance.
.
Improved serviceability
1. A diagnosis function for the ABS system makes
inspection easier.
2. An outer disc separated hub and rotor make
removal and installation easier.
3. The master cylinder reservoir is utilised for both
brake and clutch fluid on manual transmission
vehicles.
4. The master cylinder filter is coloured black for
improved viewing.
5. The ABS-ECU and hydraulic unit are integrated
to make them more compact and light weight.

BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
INTRODUCTION TO BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM DIAGNOSISM1351009700319
Hydraulic brakes are composed of the brake pedal,
master cylinder, brake booster and disc brakes. Mal-
functions such as insufficient braking power or the
generation of noise may occur due to wear, damage
or incorrect adjustment of these components.
BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING STRATEGYM1351009800316
Use these steps to plan your diagnostic strategy. If
you follow them carefully, you will be sure that you
have exhausted most of the possible ways to find a
basic brake system fault.
1. Gather information from the customer.2. Verify that the condition described by the
customer exists.
3. Find the malfunction by following the symptom
chart.
4. Verify malfunction is eliminated.
SYMPTOM CHARTM1351009900324
SYMPTOM PROCEDURES
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 1: Vehicle Pulls to One Side when Brakes are Applied
.DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Check for oil, water, etc., on the pad
contact surface of all brakes.
Q: Is oil, water, etc., on the pad contact surface?
YES :
Replace the part and determine the
source/cause of foreign material. Then go to
St e p 5.
NO : Go to Step 2. SYMPTOM INSPECTION

STEP 2. Check disc brake pistons for smooth
operation.
(1) With engine not running, depress the brake pedal
rapidly several times to deplete booster vacuum
reserves.
(2) Test each disc brake assembly one at a time.
a. Remove the lower caliper bolt, then remove
caliper from mount.
b. Have an assistant slowly depress the brake
pedal. Confirm piston(s) extend slowly and
smoothly with no jumpiness. Repeat for each
disc brake assembly.
Q: Do (does) the piston(s) move correctly?
YES :
Go to Step 3.
NO : Disassemble and inspect the brake
assembly (Front: refer to P.35A-33, Rear:
refer to P.35A-36). Then go to Step 5.
STEP 3. Check brake disc(s) for runout.
Refer to P.35A-19.
Q: Is runout outside of specifications?
YES :
Repair or replace the brake disc(s) as
necessary. Then go to Step 5.
NO : Go to Step 4.
STEP 4. Check brake discs for correct thickness.
Refer to P.35A-19.
Q: Is the thickness outside of specifications?
YES :
Repair or replace the brake disc(s) as
necessary. Then go to Step 5.
NO : Perform the brake line bleeding. Then go to
St e p 5.
STEP 5. Retest the system.
Q: Is the symptom eliminated?
YES :
The procedure is complete.
NO : Start over at Step 1. If a new symptom
appears, refer to the appropriate symptom
chart.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 2: Insufficient Braking Power
.
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Check that the specified brake fluid is
used, its level is correct, and no contamination is
found.
Q: Is there a fault?
YES :
Refill or replace with the specified brake
fluid DOT 3 or DOT 4. Bleed the brakes if
necessary (Refer to P.35A-16). Then go to
Step 7.
NO : Go to Step 2.
STEP 2. Check for spongy (not firm) brakes.
(1) With engine not running, depress the brake pedal
rapidly several times to deplete the booster
vacuum reserve.
(2) With the brake pedal fully released, depress the
brake pedal slowly until it stops.
(3) With a measuring device (ruler, etc.) next to the
brake pedal, depress the pedal firmly and
measure the distance the pedal traveled.
Q: Is the distance greater than 20 mm (0.8 inch)?
YES :
Bleed the brakes to remove air in the fluid
(Refer to P.35A-16). Then go to Step 7.
NO : Go to Step 3.
STEP 3. Check the brake booster function.
Refer to P.35A-14.
Q: Is there a fault?
YES :
Replace the brake booster. Then go to Step
7.
NO : Go to Step 4.

BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM35A-5
STEP 4. Check for pinched or restricted brake
tube or hose.
Q: Is there a pinched or restricted brake tube or hose?
YES :
Replace that complete section of brake tube
or brake hose. Then go to Step 7.
NO : Go to Step 5.
STEP 5. Check for oil, water, etc., on the pad
contact surfaces of all brakes.
Q: Is oil, water, etc., on the pad contact surface?
YES :
Replace the part and determine the
source/cause of foreign material. Recheck
symptom. Then go to Step 7.
NO : The procedure is complete. If condition
persists for vehicles without ABS, go to Step
6.
STEP 7. Recheck symptom.
Q: Is the symptom eliminated?
YES :
The procedure is complete.
NO : Start over at step 1. If a new symptom
surfaces, refer to the appropriate symptom
chart.
