Removal Procedure

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2012 GMC Yukon XL, 2012 GMC Yukon, 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2012 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2012 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:

Refer to Brake Fluid Irritant Warning .

    NOTE:

    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. NOTE:

    During the pressure relief process, the fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir will rise. Do not remove the master cylinder reservoir cap during the pressure relief process.

  3. Wait approximately 1 to 3 minutes until the brake modulator and HPA pressure relief is complete.
  4. Remove the brake fluid from the brake master cylinder reservoir until the level is below the reservoir supply hose fitting and discard into an approved container.
  5. Disconnect the brake fluid level sensor electrical connector.
