GENERAL PROCEDURES (BRAKE)

id041000800100

Wheel and Tire Installation

1. When installing the wheels and tires, tighten the wheel nuts in a criss-cross pattern to the following tightening torque.

  Tightening torque

  88—118 N·m {9.0—12.0 Kgf·m, 65.0—87.0 ft·lbf}

Brake Lines Disconnection

1. If any brake line has been disconnected anytime during the procedures, add brake fluid, bleed the brakes, and inspect for leakage after the procedure has been completed.

  Caution
  • Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces. Be careful not to spill any on painted surfaces. If it is spilled, wipe it off immediately.

Brake Pipe Flare Nut Tightening

1. Tighten the brake pipe flare nut using the commercially available flare nut wrench.

Connector Disconnection

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable before performing any work that requires handling of connectors. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L8, LF].)

ABS/DSC Related Parts

1. Make sure that there are no DTCs in the ABS/DSC memory after working on ABS/DSC related parts. If there are any codes in the memory, clear them.

DSC Related Part Sensor Initialization Procedure

  Warning
  • If the initialization procedure is not completed, the DSC will not operate properly and it might cause an unexpected accident. Therefore, when replacing or removing the following parts, make sure to perform the initialization procedure to insure proper DSC operation.

1. When replacing or removing the following parts, perform the initialization procedure. (See COMBINED SENSOR INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE.) (See STEERING ANGLE SENSOR INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE.) (See STEERING ANGLE SIGNAL INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE.)

  ― DSC HU/CM
  ― Combined sensor
  ― Steering angle sensor

Steering Angle Sensor Initialization Procedure

  Warning
  • Unless the initialization procedure of the steering angle sensor is completed, the DSC will not operate, causing an unexpected accident. Therefore, always perform the initialization procedure to ensure DSC operation if the power supply to the steering angle sensor has been cut off due to disconnection of the steering angle sensor connector or negative battery cable, or any other cause.

  Note
  • The initialization value of the steering angle sensor is stored using the battery power supply. Therefore, the battery power supply of the steering angle sensor is cut and the stored initialization value is cleared when any of the following items are performed.
    ― Negative battery cable disconnection
    ― Steering angle sensor connector disconnection
    ― Fuse (ROOM 15A) removal
    ― Wiring harness disconnection between battery and steering angle sensor connector

1. When replacing or removing the following parts, perform the initialization procedure. (See STEERING ANGLE SENSOR INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE.)

  • Negative battery cable disconnection
  • Steering angle sensor connector disconnection
  • Fuse (ROOM 15A) removal
  • Wiring harness disconnection between battery and steering angle sensor connector
