Bleeding Brake System
CAUTION:
ICarefully monitor brake fluid level at master cylinder dur-
ing bleeding operation.
IIf master cylinder is suspected to have air inside, bleed air
from master cylinder first. Refer to ªInstallationº, ªMAS-
TER CYLINDERº, BR-16.
IFill reservoir with recommended brake fluid ªDOT 4º. Make
sure it is full at all the times while bleeding air out of sys-
tem.
IPlace a container under master cylinder to avoid spillage
of brake fluid.
IFor models with ABS, turn ignition switch to the OFF posi-
tion and disconnect ABS fuse or battery cable.
IBleed air in the following order:
Load Sensing Valve air bleeder (Models equipped with LSV)
"
Left rear brake
"
Right rear brake
"
Left front brake
"
Right front brake
1. Connect a transparent vinyl tube to air bleeder valve.
2. Fully depress brake pedal several times.
3. With brake pedal depressed, open air bleeder valve to release
air.
4. Close air bleeder valve.
5. Release brake pedal slowly.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 until clear brake fluid comes out of
air bleeder valve.
7. Tighten air bleeder valve

Purpose
The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) with an integrated Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD) system con-
sists of electronic and hydraulic components. It allows you to control the braking force so that wheel lock can
be avoided during braking.
The advantages of ABS with EBD
1) Better tracking performance through improved steering wheel control.
2) Improved maneuverability and safer vehicle control.
3) Improved vehicle stability by preventing flat spins.
4) Shorter stopping distance and optimal utilisation of the rear brakes under many different circumstances.
Operation
IABS with EBD has self-test capabilities. The ABS warning lamp is illuminated for 1 second each time the
ignition switch is turned ªONº. After the engine is started, the ABS warning lamp turns off. An ABS self-test
is performed the first time the vehicle reaches 6 km/h (4 MPH) to ensure the system is operational. A
mechanical noise may be heard as the ABS performs this self-test and is a normal part of the self-test
feature. If a malfunction is detected during this check, the ABS warning lamp will stay on.
During the self-test, it also performs a EBD check when it detects a failure the ABS warning light will go
on simultaneously with the brake warning light and an audible sound will sound constantly.
IEBD system will only operate when the ABS is not in active status and it uses the inlet valves of ABS con-
trol unit to limit the pressure to the rear wheels when they tend to go into slip.
IWhen the vehicle speed is less than 10 km/h (6 MPH) the ABS system does not operate.
IWhile driving, a mechanical noise may be heard during ABS operation, this is a normal system condition.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
BR-37
System Description
Sensor
The sensor unit consists of a gear-shaped sensor rotor and a sen-
sor element. The element contains a bar magnet around which a
coil is wound. The sensor is installed on the back of the brake rotor
and the rear brake drum.
As the wheel rotates, the sensor generates a sine-wave pattern.
The frequency and voltage increase(s) as the rotating speed
increases.
Control unit
The control unit computes the wheel rotating speed by the signal
current sent from the sensor. Then it supplies a DC current to the
actuator solenoid valve. It also controls ON-OFF operation of the
valve relay and rotor relay. If any electrical malfunction should be
detected in the ABS or EBD system, the control unit causes the
warning lamp(s) to light up, combined with an audible sound.
In this condition, the ABS or EBD will be deactivated by the control
unit, and the vehicle's brake system reverts to normal operation.

G SENSOR
The G sensor analyses deceleration during braking to determine whether the vehicle is being driven on a road
with low surface resistance () (snow-covered road, etc.). The ABS control unit uses the signal from the
deceleration sensor to compensate for road surface conditions when controlling the braking operation.
