C: CHECKING THE HYDRAULIC UNIT ABS
OPERATION
1. CHECKING THE HYDRAULIC UNIT ABS
OPERATION BY PRESSURE GAUGE
1) Lift-up vehicle and remove wheels.
2) Disconnect the air bleeder screws from the FL and FR
caliper bodies.
B4M0633A
3) Connect two pressure gauges to the FL and FR caliper
bodies.
CAUTION:
Pressure gauges used exclusively for brake fluid
must be used.
Do not employ pressure gauge previously used for
transmission since the piston seal is expanded which
may lead to malfunction of the brake.
NOTE:
Wrap sealing tape around the pressure gauge.
4) Bleed air from the pressure gauges.
5) Perform ABS sequence control.
6) When the hydraulic unit begins to work, and first the FL
side performs decompression, holding, and compression,
and then the FR side performs decompression, holding,
and compression.
7) Read values indicated on the pressure gauge and
check if the fluctuation of the values between decompres-
sion and compression meets the standard values. Also
check if any irregular brake pedal tightness is felt.

8) Remove pressure gauges and air bleeder screws from
the RL and RR caliper bodies.
9) Connect the air bleeder screws hose to the FL and FR
caliper bodies.
10) Connect two pressure gauges to the RL and RR cali-
per bodies.
11) Bleed air from the pressure gauges and the FL and FR
caliper bodies.
12) Perform ABS sequence control.

13) When the hydraulic unit begins to work, at first the RR
side performs decompression, holding, and compression,
and then the RL side performs decompression, holding,
and compression.
14) Read values indicated on the pressure gauges and
check if they meet the standard value.

bodies.
17) Bleed air from brake line.

5) Hydraulic unit begins to work; and check the following
working sequence.
(1) The front left wheel performs decompression,
holding, and compression in sequence, and subse-
quently the front right wheel repeats the cycle.
(2) The rear right wheel performs decompression,
holding, and compression in sequence, and subse-
quently the rear left wheel repeats the cycle.
6) Read values indicated on the brake tester and check if
the fluctuation of values, when decompressed and
compressed, meet the standard values.
