FRONT BRAKE FLEXIBLE HOSECOMPONENTS:
REMOVAL
NOTICE: While the battery is connected, even if the engine switch is off, the brake control system activates when the brake pedal is depressed or the door courtesy switch turns on. Therefore during servicing of the brake system components, do not operate the brake pedal and open/ close the doors while the battery is connected.
HINT:
^ Use the same procedures for the LH side and RH side.
^ The procedures listed below are for the LH side.
1. REMOVE COWL TOP VENTILATOR LOUVER RH
2. DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL
CAUTION: Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.
NOTICE: After the engine switch is turned off, the HDD navigation system requires approximately 6 minutes to record various types of memory and settings. As a result, after turning the engine switch off, wait 6 minutes or more before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
3. REMOVE FRONT WHEEL
4. DRAIN BRAKE FLUID
NOTICE: Wash brake fluid off immediately if it is spilled on any painted surface.
5. REMOVE FRONT BRAKE FLEXIBLE HOSE
(a) Remove the brake tube with SST while holding the flexible hose with a wrench.
SST 09023-00101
NOTICE:
^ Do not bend or damage the brake tube.
^ Do not allow any foreign matter such as dirt and dust to enter the brake tube from the connecting points.
(b) Remove the clip (labeled A).
