4A-5 Brake Control System and Diagnosis:
Rear Brake Light Switch Inspection
B817H24106003
Inspect the rear brake light switch in the following
procedures:
1) Disconnect the rear brake light switch lead coupler
(1).
2) Inspect the switch for continuity with a tester.
If any abnormality is found, replace the rear brake
light switch with a new one.

Rear Brake Light Switch Inspection and
Adjustment
B817H24106004
Check the rear brake light switch so that the brake light
will come on just before pressure is felt when the brake
pedal is depressed. If the brake light switch adjustment
is necessary, turn the adjuster nut (1) in or out while
holding the brake pedal.
Brake Fluid Level Check
B817H24106005
Refer to “Brake System Inspection in Section 0B
(Page 0B-18)”.
Brake Hose Inspection
B817H24106006
Refer to “Brake System Inspection in Section 0B
(Page 0B-18)”.
Air Bleeding from Brake Fluid Circuit
B817H24106007
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 lack of braking force. Considering the danger to
which such trapped air exposes the machine and rider, it
is essential that after remounting the brake and restoring
the brake system to the normal condition, the brake fluid
circuit be purged of air in the following manner:
CAUTION
!
Handle brake fluid with care: the fluid reacts
chemically with paint, plastic, rubber
materials, etc.
Front Brake
1) Fill the master cylinder reservoir to the top of the
inspection window. Place the reservoir cap to
prevent dirt from entering.
2) Attach a hose to the air bleeder valve, and insert the
free end of the hose into a receptacle.
3) Squeeze and release the brake lever several times
in rapid succession and squeeze the lever fully
without releasing it.
