Removal Procedure

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2008 GMC Yukon XL, 2008 GMC Yukon, 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2008 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: The high pressure accumulator (HPA) and the chambers of the brake modulator assembly to which it attaches, store brake fluid at extremely high pressures. Fluid pressure must be relieved before attempting to service the HPA. Ensure that the recommended procedures are followed to relieve system pressure, including using the manual pressure release steps. Failure to properly follow procedures to depressurize the system may result in personal injury.
CAUTION: Refer to Brake Fluid Irritant Caution .
NOTE: Refer to Brake Fluid Effects on Paint and Electrical Components Notice .
    IMPORTANT: The ignition must be in the OFF position, without pausing at ACCESSORY, and without applying the brake pedal to ensure the brake modulator and high pressure accumulator (HPA) pressure relief occurs. This process will take approximately 1 to 3 minutes.
  1. Turn the ignition to OFF, without pausing at ACCESSORY, and remove the ignition key.
  2. Raise and support the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle .
