Turn ignition switch to OFF and remove the battery. Lift and remove the cowl cover between the wiper arm pivots. Manual transmission models: Remove the bolt from the clutch hydraulic reservoir bracket and position the reservoir to the side. Unplug the electrical connector for the fluid level warning switch. On 2009 and later models, squeeze the clamp and remove the reservoir hose from the brake master cylinder. Place rags under the fittings and prepare caps or plastic bags to cover the ends of the lines once they're disconnected. Loosen the fittings at the ends of the
Brake Lines where they enter the brake master cylinder. Pull the brake lines away from the brake master cylinder and plug the ends to prevent contamination. Remove the nuts and washers attaching the brake master cylinder to the power booster. Pull the brake master cylinder off the studs to remove it. Remove and discard the rod seal from the brake master cylinder. Bench bleed the new brake master cylinder before installing it. Mount the brake master cylinder in a vise, with the jaws of the vise clamping on the mounting flange. Attach a pair of brake master cylinder bleeder tubes to the outlet ports of the brake master cylinder. Fill the reservoir with brake fluid of the recommended type. Slowly push the pistons into the brake master cylinder. Remove the bleed tubes, one at a time, and install plugs in the open ports to prevent fluid leakage and air from entering. Install the reservoir cap. Install a new on the end of the brake master cylinder and coat it with silicone grease. Install the brake master cylinder over the studs on the power brake booster and tighten the nuts only finger-tight at this time. Thread the brake line fittings into the brake master cylinder. Tighten the mounting nuts to the torque. Tighten the brake line fittings securely. Fill the brake master cylinder reservoir with fluid, then bleed the lines at the brake master cylinder, followed by bleeding the remainder of the brake system. Check and adjust the brake pedal height and freeplay. Reconnect the battery and perform the necessary re-learn procedures.
