Relieving Accumulator/Line Pressure
WARNING!^ Use the Bleeder T-wrench before disassembling the parts in the illustration.
^ High-pressure fluid will squirt out if the high-pressure pipe/hose is removed without first relieving pressure.
1. Open the hood.
2. Remove the red cap from the bleeder on the modulator.
3. Install the Bleeder T-wrench on the maintenance bleeder and turn it out slowly 90° to collect high-pressure fluid into the reservoir. Turn the T-wrench out one complete turn to drain the brake fluid thoroughly.
4. Retighten the maintenance bleeder and discard the fluid.
5. Reinstall the red cap.
Reservoir Brake Fluid Draining
1. Draining brake fluid from modulator tank:
^ The brake fluid may be sucked out through the top of the modulator tank with a syringe. It may also be drained through the reservoir-to-power unit hose by disconnecting it at the power unit.
2. Draining brake fluid from master cylinder:
^ Loosen the bleed screw and pump the brake pedal to drain the brake fluid from the master cylinder.
