pressurizing the hydraulic
system during its automated
self diagnostic tests that may
occur when a door is opened
or the remote key is present.
{Warning
To avoid personal injury and/
or vehicle damage, always
disconnect the battery
before performing service
work on the hydraulic brake
system. Bleeding the brake
system with the battery
connected can lead to
excessive pressurization of
the system during automatic
diagnostic tests or diagnosis
of a leak or air in the braking
system. A Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) may set
and vehicle speed may be
limited.Brake Cooling (V-Series
Blackwing)

complete the following:
1. Ensure all the brake cooling parts are correctly
secured and installed.
2. Inspect and replace any deflectors that have
damage.
3. Inspect for blockage in the front brake cooling duct
prior to every event.
If improved brake cooling is
desired, install the ball joint
protector front shields,
remove both upper and lower
rear rotor shields, and install
the rear lower control arm
cooling deflectors, per the
instructions included with the
brake cooling kit. These parts
are for track use only. After
track events reinstall original

these conditions must be met:
.The vehicle must be in
Track Mode.
.Performance Traction
Management (PTM) Mode
must be enabled.
.The steering wheel must be
