Starter relay inspection
Inspect the starter relay in the following procedures:
remove the starter relay. Refer to “starter relay removal and
installation” .
Apply 12 v to “a” and “b” terminals and check for
continuity between the positive and negative
terminals using the multi-circuit tester. If th ...
Air bleeding from brake fluid circuit
Air trapped in the brake fluid circuit acts like a cushion to
absorb a large proportion of the pressure developed by
the master cylinder and thus interferes with the full
braking performance of the brake caliper. The presence
of air is indicated by “sponginess” of the brake lever and
also by la ...
