1 1 ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)
HYDRAULIC UNIT FLUID
Inspection of Level
1. Run the engine for 10 seconds to let the pump mo-
tor build pressure in the accumulator; then stop the
engine.
2. Check that the fluid level is between the Max and
Min lines of the reservoir.
3. If the level is lower than the Min line and leakage
from cap is not found, replace the hydraulic unit
assembly.
86U11X-187
76G11X-061
Replacement
1. Remove the reservoir cap and retainer.
2. Use a suction pump and a soft vinyl hose to suck
fluid from the reservoir.
Caution
a) A hard hose may damage the filter in the
reservoir.
b)Only the amount of fluid shown can be re-
moved from the reservoir.
3. Fill the reservoir with the specified type and amount
of brake fluid.
Caution
a) Do not allow any foreign material to enter
the reservoir.
b) Do not soak the upper filter with brake flu-
id. Otherwise, pouring fluid may be difficult.
Fluid: DOT-3 or DOT-4 or SAE J1703
4. Check the fluid level as described above.
HYDRAULIC UNIT
Warning
The accumulator contains high-pressure gas;
do not attempt to disassemble it or subject it
to hard shocks or high heat.
When the hydraulic unit is scrapped, the high-
pressure gas must be released. Turn the
screw on the accumulator bottom one full turn
only and allow the gas to escape gradually.

Inspection of Pressure Reduction
1. Check that the battery is fully charged.
2. Jack up the vehicle and support it with safety
stands.
3. Release the parking brake.
4. Check the wheel for brake drag while turning it by
hand.
5. Connect terminal wires (GB) and (B) of the check
connector with a jumper wire.
6. Have an assistant depress the brake pedal; then
verify that the wheel cannot be turned.
7. Run the engine for 10 sec, and stop it.
8. With the brake pedal depressed, turn the ignition
switch ON.
9. With the brake pedal still depressed, check that the
wheel can be turned intermittently (when pressure-
reduction is operating).

10. Check operation at the remaining wheels.
11. If not operated correctly, check the warning light
and brake light switch circuit for proper operation.
Inspection of Proportioning Valve
Note
The proportioning valve is built into the hy-
draulic unit.
1. Disconnect the flexible hose from the brake pipe;
then connect one pressure gauge to the front brake
pipe, the other to the rear brake pipe.
Note
Use a pressure gauge [9,810 kPa (100 kg/cm2,
1,422 psi)].

2. Bleed air from the system.
3. Depress the brake pedal, and compare the fluid
pressure of the front brake with that of the rear
brake.

REMOVAL
Caution
a) Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces. If it does get on the painted surfaces, wipe
it off immediately.
b) Oo not tip the hydraulic unit to prevent the brake fluid in the reservoir from draining.
1. Remove the nuts mounting the fuel filter and ignitor to the bracket and move them toward the engine.
2. Remove the air cleaner assembly.
3. Remove the master cylinder. (Refer to page 11—14.)
4. Remove the hydraulic unit in the sequence shown in the figure.

INSTALLATION
1. Install in the reverse order of removal.
Before installing the air cleaner assembly, igniter, and fuel filter:
(1) Add brake fluid and bleed air. (Refer to page 11—9.)
(2) Check each part for fluid leakage.
(3) Check the brake fluid level of both the master cylinder reservoir and hydraulic unit reservoir.
2. Tighten all bolts and nuts to the specified torque, referring to torque specifications.
3. After installation:
(1) The sealing reservoir cap (red) is installed on the new hydraulic unit to prevent the brake fluid
from leaking while shipping. Replace it with an original cap (black) after replacing the hydraulic unit.
(2) Check that the hydraulic unit operates properly by testing the pressure reduction. (Refer to page
11-95.)

CONTROL UNIT CIRCUIT
Inspection of Control Unit Circuit
1. Start the engine, and run it for 10 seconds.
2. Disconnect the connectors from the control unit. Check the connector at the harness side as shown
in the table below.
