Q: What is the antilock brake system automated bleed procedure?
A:
You need to install a scan tool to the vehicle, start the engine and allow the engine to idle, follow the instructions on the scan tool to complete the automated bleed procedure, apply the brake pedal when instructed by the scan tool, turn the ignition OFF and remove the scan tool from the vehicle. Next, you can fill the brake master cylinder reservoir to the maximum-fill level with Delco Supreme 11(R), GM P/N 12377967 (Canadian P/N 992667), or equivalent DOT-3 brake fluid from a clean, sealed brake fluid container, bleed the hydraulic brake system, with the ignition OFF, apply the brakes 3-5 times, or until the brake pedal becomes firm, slowly depress and release the brake pedal and observe the feel of the brake pedal. If the brake pedal feels spongy, repeat the automated bleeding procedure. If the brake pedal still feels spongy after repeating the automated bleeding procedure inspect the brake system for external leaks. Then you can turn the ignition key ON, with the engine OFF. check to see if the brake system warning lamp remains illuminated, drive the vehicle to exceed 13 km/h (8 mph) to allow ABS initialization to occur, and observe brake pedal feel. If the brake pedal feels spongy, repeat the automated bleeding procedure until a firm brake pedal is obtained.

FAQ for Other Repair Info

Q: How do you install the power brake booster?
A:
You need to install the gasket, the booster assembly, the 4 booster to bulkhead nuts, the stop lamp switch, and the master cylinder to the Brake Booster, connect the return hose, the steering gear, and the inlet hoses, bleed the hydraulic booster system and release the park brake and unblock the wheels.
Q: What is the master cylinder bench bleeding procedure?
A:
You need to secure the mounting flange of the Brake Master Cylinder in a bench vise so that the rear of the primary piston is accessible, remove the master cylinder reservoir cap and diaphragm and install suitable fittings to the master cylinder ports that match the type of flare seat required and also provide for hose attachment and transparent hoses to the fittings installed to the master cylinder ports, then route the hoses into the master cylinder reservoir. Fill the master cylinder reservoir to at least the halfway point with Delco Supreme 11(R), GM P/N 12377967 (Canadian P/N 992667), or equivalent DOT-3 brake fluid from a clean, sealed brake fluid container. Using a smooth, round-ended tool, depress and release the primary piston as far as it will travel, a depth of about 25 mm (1 in), several times and observe the flow of fluid coming from the ports. Then you can continue to depress and release the primary piston until fluid flows freely from the ports with no evidence of air bubbles, remove the transparent hoses from the master cylinder reservoir, install the master cylinder reservoir cap and diaphragm, remove the fittings with the transparent hoses from the master cylinder ports, wrap the master cylinder with a clean shop cloth to prevent brake fluid spills and remove the master cylinder from the vise.
