blinking of flasher.
Noise occurs during window washer operation.Scratching noise occurs while engine is running,
continues a while even after engine stops.Scraping noise in time with wiper beat.
Other type of noise. Alternator noise.

and relays, which are located centrally at relay block No. 2 and relay block No. 6 i\
n the engine compartment
and junction block No. 1 relay block No. 4 and relay block No. 5 in the \
cabin near the driver's feet.

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.
