Integrated Control Unit - MK25E: Removal

  1. Disconnect negative (-) battery cable from battery post and isolate.
  2. CAUTION: Vacuum in power brake booster must be pumped down (removed) before removing master cylinder from power brake booster. This is necessary to prevent power brake booster from sucking in any contamination as master cylinder is removed. This can be done simply by pumping brake pedal, with vehicle's engine not running, until a firm feeling brake pedal is achieved.
  3. With engine not running, pump brake pedal until a firm pedal is achieved (4-5 strokes).
  4. Remove nuts fastening coolant recovery bottle in place and reposition bottle with hoses attached out of way. (Refer to COOLING/ENGINE/COOLANT RECOVERY PRESS CONTAINER - REMOVAL)
  5. CAUTION: Before removing master cylinder from power brake vacuum booster, master cylinder and vacuum booster must be thoroughly cleaned. This must be done to prevent dirt particles from falling into power brake vacuum booster.
  6. Thoroughly clean all surfaces of brake fluid reservoir and master cylinder, paying special attention to area where master cylinder attaches to power brake booster. Use only Mopar(R) Brake Parts Cleaner or equivalent.
  7. Disconnect wiring harness connector from brake fluid level switch in master cylinder brake fluid reservoir. See Fig 1.
