On-vehicle ServiceNLBR0023OPERATING CHECKNLBR0023S011. Stop engine and depress brake pedal several times. Check
that pedal stroke does not change.
2. Depress brake pedal, then start engine. If pedal goes down
slightly, operation is normal.
SBR365AA
AIRTIGHT CHECKNLBR0023S021. Start engine, and stop it after one or two minutes. Depress
brake pedal several times slowly. The pedal should go further
down at the first time, and then it should gradually rise there-
after.
2. Depress brake pedal while engine is running, and stop engine
with pedal depressed. The pedal stroke should not change
after holding pedal down for30 seconds.

RemovalNLBR0024CAUTION:
+Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
+Be careful not to deform or bend brake pipes, during
booster removal.

inHg) to brake booster with a handy vacuum pump.
2. Add preload of 19.6 N (2 kg, 4.4 lb) to output rod.
3. Check output rod length.

ECM Terminals and Reference ValueNLEC1769Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may result in dam-
age to the ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

On Board Diagnosis LogicNLEC1770If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.

(Possible Cause)
P1217
1217+Cooling fan does not operate properly (Overheat).
+Cooling fan system does not operate properly (Over-
heat).
+Engine coolant was not added to the system using the
proper filling method.+Harness or connectors

For more information, refer to ªMAIN 12 CAUSES
OF OVERHEATINGº, EC-898.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant following the procedure in the LC-19,
ªChanging Engine Coolantº. Also, replace the engine oil.
1) Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure to use
coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA-20, ªAnti-freeze Coolant Mixture Ratioº, ªRECOM-
MENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTSº.
2) After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.
