1. Ensure vehicle is unladen condition*.* Fuel, radiator coolant and engine oil full. Spare tire, jack,hand tools and mats in designated positions.
2. Have a driver sit in the driver's seat and one person sit on the rear end. Then have the person on the rear end slowly get off
the vehicle. This is necessary to stabilize suspension de¯ec-
tion.
3. Gradually depress brake pedal and attach a lever to the stop- per bolt, then adjust length ``L'' as follows:Length ``L'': Approx. 175.2 - 178.2 mm (6.90 - 7.02 in)
4. Remove front LH tire.
5. Connect tool to air bleeders on front LH brake caliper and rear LH or RH brake wheel cylinder.
6. Install front LH tire.
Before installing front LH tire, con®rm the tool is not touching
the front LH wheel.
7. Bleed air from Tool.
8. Raise front brake pressure to 4,904 kPa (49.0 bar, 50 kg/cm
2,
711 psi) and 9,807 kPa (98.1 bar, 100 kg/cm2, 1,422 psi) and
check rear brake pressure. Rear brake pressure: Refer to table on next page.

WARNING:
Clean brake pads with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the
hazard of airborne particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
Suspend caliper assembly with wire so as not to stretch brake
hose.
Remove torque member ®xing bolts and connecting bolt.
It is not necessary to remove connecting bolt except for dis-
assembly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this case,
suspend caliper assembly with wire so as not to stretch brake
hose.
Disassembly
WARNING:
Do not place your ®ngers in front of piston.
CAUTION:
Do not scratch or score cylinder wall.
1. Push out piston with dust seal with compressed air.
2. Remove piston seal with a suitable tool.

are observed, replace cylinder body.
+ Minor damage from rust or foreign objects may be eliminated
by polishing surface with a ®ne emery paper. Replace cylinder
body if necessary.
CAUTION:
Use brake ¯uid to clean. Never use mineral oil.
PISTON
Check piston for score, rust, wear, damage or presence of foreign
objects. Replace if any of the above conditions are observed.
CAUTION:
Piston sliding surface is plated. Do not polish with emery
paper even if rust or foreign objects are stuck to sliding sur-
face.

How to Perform Trouble Diagnoses for Quick
and Accurate Repair
INTRODUCTION
The ABS system has an electronic control unit to control major
functions. The control unit accepts input signals from sensors and
instantly drives the actuators. It is essential that both kinds of sig-
nals are proper and stable. It is also important to check for conven-
tional problems: such as air leaks in booster lines, lack of brake
¯uid, or other problems with the brake system.
It is much more difficult to diagnose a problem that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent problems are
caused by poor electric connections or faulty wiring. In this case,
careful checking of suspicious circuits may help prevent the
replacement of good parts.
A visual check only may not ®nd the cause of the problems, so a
road test should be performed.
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with
a customer who approaches with a ABS complaint. The customer
is a very good source of information on such problems; especially
intermittent ones. Through the talks with the customer, ®nd out what
symptoms are present and under what conditions they occur.
Start your diagnosis by looking for ``conventional'' problems ®rst.
This is one of the best ways to troubleshoot brake problems on an
ABS controlled vehicle.

. 1: If one or more wheels spin on a rough or slippery road for 40 seconds or more, the ABS warning lamp will illuminate. This does
not indicate a malfunction. Only in the case of the short-circuit (Code Nos. 26, 22, 32 and 36), after repair the ABS warning lamp
also illuminates when the ignition switch is turned ``ON''. In this case, drive the vehicle at speeds greater than 30 km/h (19 MPH)
for approximately 1 minute as speci®ed in ``SELF-DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE'', BR-47. Check to ensure that the ABS warning
lamp goes out while the vehicle is being driven.
. 2: The trouble code ``57'', which refers to a low power supply voltage, does not indicate that the ABS control unit is malfunctioning.
Do not replace the ABS control unit with a new one.
. 3: The trouble code ``61'' can sometimes appear when the ABS motor is not properly grounded. If it appears, be sure to check the
condition of the ABS motor ground circuit connection.
