OVERHAUL Assembling master cylinder
CAUTION: It is important that the following
instructions are carried out precisely,
otherwise damage could be caused to new
seals when inserting plungers into cylinder bore.
Generous amounts of new brake fluid should be
used to lubricate parts during assembly.
NOTE: Thoroughly check that no debris is
lodged in fluid passageways and drillings.
If debris is found, carefully remove,
re-clean cylinder and re-check.
16.Fit new swirl tube to bottom of cylinder bore.
17.Lubricate secondary plunger and cylinder bore.
Offer plunger assembly to cylinder until
recuperation seal is resting centrally in mouth of
bore. Gently introduce plunger with a circular
rocking motion, as illustrated. Ensuring that seal
does not become trapped, ease seal into bore
and slowly push plunger down bore in one
continuous movement.

method as for secondary plunger, push plunger
down bore.
19.Fit original guide ring to support primary plunger.
20.Coat a new 'O' ring with brake fluid and fit to its
respective groove on outer location surface of
master cylinder.
CAUTION: 'O' ring should not be rolled
down outer location surface of master
cylinder but should be slightly stretched
and eased down cylinder and into its groove. Do
not over stretch seal.21.Fit a new retaining ring on outer surface of
master cylinder ensuring that serrations of ring
are facing mounting flange.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Door and bonnet switches
Perimetric protection for the vehicle is provided by
ECU inputs connected to the starter switch, bonnet
switch and door switches.
Ultrasonic sensor
The ultrasonic sensor operates by emitting an air
pressure carrier wave which is subsequently received
by the sensor as it bounces back from objects inside
the vehicle. Once armed, the alarm will sound if wave
is disturbed by a door opening, or if movement is
detected inside the vehicle.
When the volumetric sensor is activated it monitors
movement within the vehicle for 15 seconds before
detecting and responding to intrusions. If the sensor
detects movement it delays arming until a quiet period
has lapsed; if continuous movement is detected, the
alarm will not arm volumetrically.
NOTE: Interior protection will not operate
until 15 seconds after alarm is set.
The ultrasonic sensor is positioned in a different
location, according to vehicle type, as follows:
·90/110 Station Wagon - RH cantrail trim
·90/110 Pick-up - On headlining, between interior
lamp and rear view mirror
·130 Crewcab - On headlining above RH door
Alarm sounder
Two types of alarm sounder can be fitted, one with a
battery back-up facility and or without battery back-up,
both providing an audible warning whenever the alarm
is triggered. The vehicle horn will also operate if the
alarm sounds.
The alarm sounder is fitted to LH inner front wing in
the engine compartment.
NOTE: Disconnecting the battery on
vehicles fitted with the battery backed-up
facility will result in the alarm sounding, if
correct procedure has not been followed.Engine immobilisation warning light
The engine immobilisation warning light is located on
the instrument panel, and provides a visual indication
that the engine is immobilised.
Anti-theft alarm indicator light
The anti-theft alarm indicator light is located on the
instrument panel, between the fuel and coolant
temperature indicators, and provides a visual
indication of the alarm/ immobiliser status.
