Checking The Hydraulic Unit VDC Operation With Brake Tester
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Subaru Forester. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Set wheels other than the one to measure on free rollers.
- Prepare to operate the VDC sequence control.< Refer to VDC SEQUENCE CONTROL . >
- Set the front wheels or rear wheels on the brake tester and set the gear to neutral.
- Operate the brake tester.
- Perform VDC sequence control.< Refer to VDC SEQUENCE CONTROL . >
- When the hydraulic unit begins to work, check the following work sequence.
- The FL wheel performs compression, hold and decompression in sequence, and subsequently the FR wheel repeats the cycle.
- The RR wheel performs compression, hold and decompression in sequence, and subsequently the RL wheel repeats the cycle.
- Read values indicated on the brake tester and check if the fluctuation of the values between decompression and compression meets specification.
Front wheel Rear wheel When pressurized 2, 000 N (204 kgf, 450 lbf) or more 2, 000 N (204 kgf, 450 lbf) or more When depressurized 500 N (51 kgf, 112 lbf) or less 500 N (51 kgf, 112 lbf) or less - After the inspection, depress the brake pedal and check that it is not abnormally hard, and tightness is normal.
