5A-2 BRAKES PIPE / HOSE / MASTER CYLINDER
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MASTER CYLINDER ASSEMBLY
The master cylinder has two pistons and three piston cups. Its hydraulic pressure is produced in the primary (ªaº
in the figure below) and secondary (ªbº) chambers. The hydraulic pressure produced in the primary chamber (ªaº)
acts on the front (for vehicle without ABS, rear) wheel brakes.
Also, the hydraulic pressure produced in the secondary chamber (ªbº) acts on the rear (for vehicle without ABS,
front) wheel brakes.
NOTE:
Replace all components included in repair kits to service this master cylinder. Lubricate rubber parts with
clean, fresh brake fluid to ease assembly. Do not use lubricated shop air on brake parts as damage to rub-
ber components may result. If any hydraulic component is removed or brake line disconnected, bleed the
brake system.
The torque values specified are for dry, unlubricated fasteners.
BOOSTER ASSEMBLY
The booster is located between the master cylinder and the brake pedal. It is so designed that the force created
when the brake pedal is depressed is mechanically increased combined with the engine vacuum.
The booster has two diaphragms of
ù7.5 in. (191 mm) effective diameter.
CAUTION:

Never disassemble brake booster assembly. If it is found faulty, replace it with new assembly.

The torque values specified are for dry, unlubricated fasteners. If any hydraulic component is re-
moved or brake line disconnected, bleed the brake system.

LSPV (Load Sensing Proportioning Valve) ASSEMBLY (if equipped)
As shown in figure below, LSPV is included within the brake circuit which connects the master cylinder and the rear
wheel brake. It controls the hydraulic pressure applied to the rear wheel brake according to the loaded state of the
vehicle (or weight of the load), whereby preventing the rear wheels from getting locked prematurely.
Also, it releases the above described control over the hydraulic pressure applied to the rear wheel brake, should
any failure occur in the hydraulic circuit of the front wheel brake so that the hydraulic pressure produced in the mas-
ter cylinder is applied to the rear wheel brake directly to operate it.
CONSTITUTION
The LSPV components are grouped into three sections as follows.
ªAº: Sensor section
The main parts in this section are a lever and a spring which senses variation in the vehicle height as affected
by the loaded condition and converts it into the load.
ªBº: Hydraulic pressure control section
Included in this section are a stepped plunger and valve mechanism to execute proportional control.
ªCº: Fail-safe section
The main parts in this section are a chamber which draws in the hydraulic pressure from the front wheel brake
system and a fail-safe piston which releases the valve mechanism in the control section connected to the rear
wheel brake, should any failure occur in the front wheel brake system.

CLEARANCE BETWEEN BOOSTER PISTON ROD AND
MASTER CYLINDER PISTON ADJUSTMENT
The length of booster piston rod is adjusted to provide specified
clearance ªaº between piston rod end and master cylinder piston.

Before measuring clearance, push piston rod several times so as
to make sure reaction disc is in place.

Keep inside of booster at atmospheric pressure for measure-
ment.
1) Set special tool (A) on master cylinder and push pin until con-
tacts piston.
Special Tool
(A): 09950-96010
2) Turn special tool upside down and place it on booster. Adjust
booster piston rod length until rod end contacts pin head.
Special Tool

Clearance ªbº: 0 mm (0 in.)
NOTE:
Take measurement with booster set vertically and rod at the
center.
3) Adjust clearance by turning adjusting screw of piston rod.

When adjusted as above, its negative pressure is applied to boost-
er with engine at idle, piston to piston rod clearance ªaº should be-
come below.

REMOVAL
1) Hoist vehicle and remove wheel.
2) Remove brake flexible hose mounting bolt from caliper. As this
will allow fluid to flow out of hose, have a container ready before-
hand.
3) Remove caliper pin bolts.
4) Remove caliper.
DISASSEMBLY
Before disassembly, clean all around caliper with brake fluid.
1) Remove anti noise shim (if equipped) and blow compressed air
into cylinder through bolt hole where flexible hose was fitted.
With this air pressure, piston can be pushed out of cylinder.
WARNING:
Do not apply too highly compressed air which will cause
piston to jump out of cylinder. It should be taken out grad-
ually with moderately compressed air. Do not place your
fingers in front of piston when using compressed air.

5E1-2 ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) (OPTIONAL)
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ABS (Antilock Brake System) controls the fluid pressure applied to the wheel cylinder of each brake from the
master cylinder so that each wheel is not locked even when hard braking is applied. This ABS is a 4-wheel type
which controls the fluid pressure applied to the wheel cylinder of each of the four brakes to prevent each wheel
from getting locked.
The component parts of this ABS includes following parts in addition to those of the conventional brake system.

Wheel speed sensor which senses revolution speed of each wheel and outputs its signal.

In this ABS, ABS hydraulic unit (actuator assembly), ABS control module, pump motor relay and fail-safe relay
are combined as one component.

ABS control module which sends operation signal to ABS hydraulic unit to control fluid pressure applied to each
wheel cylinder based on signal from each wheel speed sensor so as to prevent wheel from locking.

ABS hydraulic unit which operates according to signal from ABS control module to control fluid pressure applied
to wheel cylinder of each of 4 wheels.

Fail-safe (solenoid valve) relay which supplies power to solenoid valve in ABS hydraulic unit and pump motor
relay.

Pump motor relay which supplies power to pump motor in ABS hydraulic unit.

ªABSº warning lamp which lights to inform abnormality when system fails to operate properly.

G sensor which detects body deceleration speed. (For 4WD model only)
This ABS is equipped with Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD) system that controls a fluid pressure of rear
wheels to best condition, which is the same function as that of proportioning valve, by the signal from wheel sensor
independently of change of load due to load capacity and so on. And if the EBD system fails to operate properly,
the brake warning lamp lights to inform abnormality.

7C1-2 CLUTCH
The clutch is a diaphragm-spring clutch of a dry single
disc type. The diaphragm spring is of a tapering-finger
type, which is a solid ring in the outer diameter part,
with a series of tapered fingers pointing inward.
The disc, carrying torsional coil springs, is positioned
on the transmission input shaft with an involute spline
fit.
The clutch cover is secured to the flywheel, and car-
ries the diaphragm spring in such a way that the pe-
ripheral edge part of the spring pushes on the pres-
sure plate against the flywheel (with the disc in be-
tween), when the clutch release bearing is held back.
This is the engaged condition of the clutch.Depressing the clutch pedal causes the release bear-
ing to advance and pushes on the tips of the tapered
fingers of the diaphragm spring. When this happens,
the diaphragm spring pulls the pressure plate away
from the flywheel, thereby interrupting the flow of
drive from flywheel through clutch disc to transmis-
sion input shaft.
