REMOVAL - LHD WITHOUT ABSNOTE: Before proceeding, Refer to WARNING/CAUTION.
CAUTION: The vacuum in the power brake booster must be pumped down before removing the master cylinder to prevent the booster from sucking in any contamination. This can be done by pumping the brake pedal while the engine is not running until a firm brake pedal is achieved.

2. Disconnect the negative (ground) cable from the battery and isolate the cable.
3. Disconnect the positive cable from the battery, then remove the battery from the battery tray. There is one nut securing the clamp on the backside of the battery holding it in place.
4. Remove the vehicle wiring harness connector from brake fluid level switch in master cylinder brake fluid reservoir (Fig. 95).
5. Disconnect the two brake tubes from the master cylinder, and two brake tubes from the proportioning valves (Fig. 96). Install plugs at all of the open brake tube outlets on the master cylinder.
