HINT:

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

HINT:

Check the performance of the brake booster with master cylinder assembly by comparing the pedal force with the value of the LSPV gauge and each stroke sensor. If there is a problem, determine the state of the brake booster with master cylinder assembly by using these results together with the results from inspecting the brake pedal stroke sensor.

(8) Remove the pedal effort gauge and SST, and bleed the brake system.
