  2. REPLACE BRAKE FLUID (When Not Using the Techstream) 
    NOTE:
    • Performing the following procedure enters ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Invalid Mode without using the Techstream.
    • ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Invalid Mode allows the brake fluid to be replaced without using the Techstream.
    • The brake warning light blinks (yellow) to indicate that ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Invalid Mode is selected.
    • Be sure to confirm that the brake warning light is blinking (yellow) throughout the brake fluid replacement procedure.
    • If any of the following conditions are met, ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Invalid Mode is canceled and the brake warning light (yellow) turns off. Do not allow ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Invalid Mode to be canceled while replacing brake fluid or DTCs may be stored.
      A shift state other than park (P) is selected.
      The power switch is turned on (READY).
      The power switch is turned off.
      The parking brake is released.
      The vehicle speed is more than 0 km/h (0 mph).
    • Do not rotate any brake disc while ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Invalid Mode is selected.
    • Although the brake warning light will blink (yellow) and a buzzer will sound while performing fluid replacement, this is not a malfunction.
    1. Remove all 4 wheels.

      See step  1 See step  1
