Brake Actuator (For Rhd With Vsc) Installation

Install the actuator with bracket with the 3 nuts.

Torque:

19 N*m{195 kgf*cm, 14 ft.*lbf}

NOTICE:

1. Tighten the 3 nuts uniformly in alphabetical order.
   
2. Be careful not to damage the brake tubes.
   
3. Do not drop the actuator. If dropped, replace it.
   

Set each brake line to the correct position on the brake actuator as shown in the illustration.

Using a union nut wrench, connect the 6 brake lines.

Torque:

without union nut wrench:

15 N*m{155 kgf*cm, 11 ft.*lbf}

with union nut wrench:

14 N*m{145 kgf*cm, 10 ft.*lbf}

HINT:

1. Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 300 mm (11.8 in.).
   
2. The torque value for use with a union nut wrench is effective when the union nut wrench is parallel to the torque wrench.
   

Connect the actuator connector.

Using SST, disconnect the 2 brake lines from the master cylinder.

Torque:

15.2 N*m{155 kgf*cm, 11 ft.*lbf}without SST

14 N*m{143 kgf*cm, 10 ft.*lbf}with SST

HINT:

Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.81 in.).

Remove the bleeder plug cap.

Connect a vinyl tube to the bleeder plugs.

Depress the brake pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder plug with the pedal depressed.

When fluid stops coming out, immediately tighten the bleeder plug. Then release the pedal.

Repeat the 2 previous steps until all the air in the brake fluid is gone.

Tighten the bleeder plug.

Torque:

10.8 N*m{110 kgf*cm, 8 ft.*lbf}for front brake

10 N*m{102 kgf*cm, 7 ft.*lbf}for rear brake

Install the cap.

Bleed air from the brake line for each wheel by repeating the above procedures.

Remove the bleeder plug cap.

Connect the vinyl tube to the bleeder plug.

Depress the clutch pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder plug with the pedal depressed.

At the point when fluid stops coming out, tighten the bleeder plug, and then release the clutch pedal.

Repeat the previous 2 steps until all the air in the fluid is completely bled out.

Tighten the bleeder plug.

Torque:

11 N*m{112 kgf*cm, 8 ft.*lbf}

Install the bleeder plug cap.

Check that all the air has been bled out of the clutch line.

Check the fluid level and add fluid if necessary.

Fluid:

SAE J1703 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT 3

HINT:

Add fluid to a level between the reservoir's MIN and MAX lines.

Check the brake actuator with the intelligent tester (Toyota Fortuner RM0000011JI00DX.html).
