Removal and InstallationEES0010S
REMOVAL
1. Remove wheel and tire from vehicle using power tool.
2. Without disconnecting the hydraulic lines, remove brake caliper using power tool. Reposition it aside with
wire. Refer to BR-22, "
Removal and Installation of Brake Caliper and Disc Rotor" .
CAUTION:
It is not necessary to remove bolts on torque member and brake hose except for disassembly or
replacement of caliper assembly. In this case, hang cylinder body with a wire so that the brake
hose in not under tension.
NOTE:
Avoid depressing brake pedal while brake caliper is removed.
3. Put alignment marks on disc rotor and wheel hub and bearing
assembly, then remove disc rotor.
4. Remove ABS sensor from steering knuckle. Refer to BRC-64, "
Removal and Installation" .
CAUTION:
Do not pull on ABS sensor harness.
5. Remove cotter pin, then remove lock nut from drive shaft using power tool.
6. Remove steering outer socket cotter pin at steering knuckle, then loosen mounting nut using power tool.

CONSULT-II CHECKING SYSTEMPFP:00000
DescriptionEAS001SK

CONSULT-II is a hand-held type tester. When it is connected with a diagnostic connector equipped on the
vehicle side, it will communicate with the control unit equipped in the vehicle and then enable various
kinds of diagnostic tests.

Refer to "CONSULT-II Operator's Manual" for more information.
