Brake Fluid Pressure Sensor Inspection

NOTE:
  • The brake fluid pressure sensor is integrated into the DSC HU/CM and installed to the brake line of LF-RR brake system. Therefore, perform the brake fluid pressure sensor inspection with the SST installed to the brake pipe on the left front wheel.
  1. Turn the ignition switch off.
  2. Loosen the brake pipe flare nut using the commercially available flare nut wrench.
  3. Disconnect the brake pipe.
  4. Remove the clamp and disconnect the brake hose.
