1. INSTALL REAR BRAKE FLEXIBLE HOSE


    C108420

  1. Connect the rear flexible hose with the union bolt and a new gasket.

    Torque:
    29 N*m{ 300 kgf*cm , 21 ft.*lbf }



    C108422

  1. Connect the rear flexible hose to the shock absorber with the bolt.

    Torque:
    19 N*m{ 193 kgf*cm , 14 ft.*lbf }

  1. Connect the brake tube to the rear flexible hose with SST while holding flexible hose with a wrench.

    SST
    09023-00101  

    Torque:
    15 N*m{ 155 kgf*cm , 11 ft.*lbf }

    NOTICE:
    1. Do not bend or damage the brake tube.
    2. Do not allow any foreign matter such as dirt and dust to enter the brake tube from the connecting points.

  1. Install the rear flexible hose with a new clip.

    NOTICE:
    1. When installing the rear flexible hose, face the identification mark to the exterior of the vehicle and minimize twisting of the hose.
    2. Install the clip as far as it will go.



2. ADD RESERVOIR WITH BRAKE FLUID

  1. Add brake fluid to the MAX line in the reservoir.

    Fluid:
    SAE J1703 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT3

    CAUTION:
    1. Add brake fluid carefully and check that the reservoir level remains between the MIN and MAX lines while bleeding the brakes.
    2. Do not stand the fluid can on the reservoir inlet when bleeding the brake actuator. Doing so will cause brake fluid to overflow.



3. BLEED REAR BRAKE SYSTEM

CAUTION:
Never bleed air from the brake hydraulic system without using the intelligent tester. Failure to use the intelligent tester could cause serious injury or an accident.

NOTICE:
Bleed the air by following the steps displayed on the intelligent tester.

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3 with the ignition switch off.

  1. Check that the parking brake is applied and turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

  1. Turn on the intelligent tester and select "DIAGNOSTIC MENU"→"ABS/VSC"→"ECB UTILITY"→"ECB INVALID".

  1. With the brake pedal depressed, bleed the rear brake system from the bleeder plug on the rear disc brake cylinder LH while the pump motor and solenoid are operating.

    CAUTION:
    Keep the fluid inside the reservoir above the LOW level by replenishing.

    HINT:
    1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
    2. After the solenoid operates for approximately 30 seconds, release the brake pedal to stop the solenoid.
    3. Repeat the procedures until air is completely bled from the rear brake system.
    4. The ECB warning light comes on and the buzzer sounds while bleeding, but they do not indicate a malfunction.

  1. Tighten the bleeder plug after bleeding.

    Torque:
    8.3 N*m{ 85 kgf*cm , 74 in.*lbf }

  1. Turn the intelligent tester on and select "DIAGNOSTIC MENU"→"ABS/VSC"→"ECB UTILITY"→"ECB INVALID"

  1. With the brake pedal depressed, bleed the rear brake system from the bleeder plug on the rear disc brake cylinder RH while the pump motor and solenoid are operating.

    CAUTION:
    Keep the fluid inside the reservoir above the LOW level by replenishing.

    HINT:
    1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
    2. After the solenoid operates for approximately 30 seconds, release the brake pedal to stop the solenoid
    3. Repeat the procedures until air is completely bled from the rear brake system.
    4. The ECB warning light comes on and the buzzer sounds while bleeding, but they do not indicate a malfunction.

  1. Tighten the bleeder plug after bleeding.

    Torque:
    8.3 N*m{ 85 kgf*cm , 74 in.*lbf }



4. PERFORM ACCUMULATOR ZERO DOWN

CAUTION:
  1. Never bleed air from the brake hydraulic system without using the intelligent tester. Failure to use the intelligent tester could cause serious injury or an accident.
  2. Be sure to perform this procedure before replacement, removal, or installation of the actuator.

NOTICE:
Perform accumulator zero down by following the steps displayed on the intelligent tester.

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3 with the ignition switch off

  1. Depressurize the accumulator.

    1. Check that the parking brake is applied and turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

    2. Turn on the intelligent tester and select "DIAGNOSTIC MENU" → "ABS/VSC" → "ECB UTILITY" → "ZERO DOWN" on the intelligent tester.

    3. When the buzzer sounds, turn the ignition switch off.

  1. Circulate the fluid in the accumulator.

    1. Depressurize the accumulator 5 times.

      HINT:
      1. Accumulator pressure is released and accumulated repeatedly, which circulates the fluid inside the accumulator, when repeating accumulator zero down.
      2. The pump motor rotates and the accumulator is pressurized every time the ignition switch is turned from off to on.



5. INSPECT AND ADJUST BRAKE FLUID LEVEL

  1. After performing accumulator zero down (accumulator depressurizing), return the fluid in the accumulator back to the reservoir and then adjust the fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir to the MAX level.

    HINT:
    1. After performing accumulator zero down (accumulator depressurizing), fluid is built up in the accumulator by turning the ignition switch to the ON position and the fluid level of the reservoir lowers.
    2. If the fluid level is adjusted without performing accumulator zero down (accumulator depressurizing), fluid is sent from the accumulator to the reservoir. The fluid level may exceed the MAX level, but it is normal.



6. CHECK BRAKE FLUID LEAKAGE


7. INSTALL REAR WHEEL

Torque:
103 N*m{ 1,050 kgf*cm , 76 ft.*lbf }
