Brakes and Traction Control: Testing and Inspection

(A) BRAKE BOOSTER
Check brake operation by applying the brakes.
If the brakes do not work properly, check the brake booster. Replace the brake booster as an assembly if it does not work properly or if there are signs of leakage.

(B) PISTON CUP AND PRESSURE CUP INSPECTION
- Check brake operation by applying the brakes.
Visually check for damage or signs of fluid leakage. Replace the master cylinder as an assembly if the pedal does not work properly or if there is damage or signs of fluid leakage.

- Check for a difference in brake pedal stroke between quick and slow brake applications. Replace the master cylinder if there is a difference in pedal stroke.

(C) BRAKE HOSES
Visually check for damage or signs of fluid leakage. Replace the brake hose with a new one if it is damaged or leaking.

(D) CALIPER PISTON SEAL AND PISTON BOOTS
Check brake operation by applying the brakes.
Visually check for damage or signs of fluid leakage.
If the pedal does not operate properly, the brakes drag, or there is damage or signs of fluid leakage, disassemble and inspect the brake caliper. Replace the boots and seals with new ones whenever the brake caliper is disassembled.
