Brake Line

1. TROUBLESHOOTING PRECAUTION

NOTICE:

• Since the brake lines are critical safety related parts, be sure to disassemble and inspect the components if a brake fluid leak is found. If any abnormality is found, replace the component with a new one.
• When removing brake components, cover the brake line connections to prevent foreign matter such as dust or dirt from entering the lines.
• Do not damage or deform the brake lines during the removal and installation procedures.
• When installing a grommet to the body, ensure that the brake line passes through the center of the grommet.
• When installing a brake line or flexible hose, ensure that they are free from twists or bends.
• If the metal end of a flexible hose does not match the groove on the bracket, twist the hose slightly to insert it.
• Flexible hoses must be free from shock absorber oil, grease, etc.
• When installing a brake line to a plastic clamp, ensure that the brake line is not loose or pinched.
• Do not reuse any clips or plastic clamps removed from a flexible hose.
• After installing a brake line or flexible hose, ensure that they do not interfere with any other components or body.
• Do not allow brake fluid on any painted vehicle body surface. If brake fluid leaks onto any painted surface, immediately wash it off.
• When disconnecting and connecting a flexible hose and brake line:
  
  1. Hold the flexible hose with a wrench and disconnect the brake tube using a union nut wrench without deforming the tube.
  2. Remove the clip and disconnect the flexible hose.
  3. Secure the flexible hose with a new clip. At this time, be sure to securely install the clip.
  4. Connect the brake tube using a union nut wrench without deforming the tube.
