Bleeding Brake System

CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle. See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES in GENERAL INFORMATION before disconnecting battery.
CAUTION: Ensure brake fluid does not spill on painted surfaces or damage to finish will result.
  1. Carefully monitor brake fluid level at master cylinder during bleeding operation. Fill reservoir with DOT 3 brake fluid. Ensure reservoir is full at all times while bleeding air out of system. Turn ignition off. Disconnect negative battery cable. Bleed brakes in sequence: master cylinder, right rear, left front, left rear and right front.
  2. Connect a transparent vinyl tube to air bleeder valve. Fully depress brake pedal several times. With brake pedal depressed, open bleeder valve to release air. Close bleeder valve. Release brake pedal slowly. Repeat procedure until clear brake fluid comes out of bleeder valve. Tighten bleeder valves to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS  .
