    After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

  2. PERFORM ACCUMULATOR PRESSURE ZERO DOWN 
    1. Using the Techstream, perform the accumulator pressure zero down operation.
      1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3 with the power switch off.
      2. Turn the power switch on (IG).
      3. Turn the Techstream on and enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRAC / Utility / ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Utility.

        Chassis > ABS/VSC/TRAC > Utility 

        Tester Display
        ECB Utility
      4. Select "Motor Invalid" on the "ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Utility" screen.
      5. Perform "Motor Invalid" according to the display on the Techstream.
      6. Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRAC / Utility / ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Utility.

        Chassis > ABS/VSC/TRAC > Utility 

        Tester Display
        ECB Utility
      7. Select "ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Invalid" on the "ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Utility" screen.
      8. Perform "ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake system) Invalid" according to the display on the Techstream.
      9. Depress the brake pedal 40 times or more to return all the fluid in the accumulator back to the reservoir.

        HINT: 

        A buzzer may sound due to low accumulator pressure. As this is not a malfunction, continue the procedure.

      10. Check that the brake pedal is firm.
        NOTE:

        If the brake pedal is not firm or the pump motor continues to operate even after depressing the brake pedal 40 times or more, the accumulator pressure zero down operation is not complete.

      11. Turn the Techstream off and turn the power switch off.
      12. Disconnect the Techstream from the DLC3.
      13. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.

        Refer to REMOVAL [08/2021 - 09/2022]

    2. When the accumulator pressure zero down could not be performed using the Techstream.
      NOTE:

      If DTCs are output, the accumulator pressure zero down operation may not be complete. In this case, perform the following procedure.

      1. With the power switch off, release the lock lever and disconnect the brake booster pump assembly connector as shown in the illustration.
