4A-5 Brake Control System and Diagnosis:
Parking / Rear Brake Light Switch Inspection
B827H14106005
Inspect the parking/rear brake light switch in the
following procedures:
1) Remove the left inner fender. Refer to “Exterior Parts
Removal and Installation in Section 9D (Page 9D-
3)”.
2) Disconnect the parking/rear brake light switch
coupler (1).
3) Inspect the parking/rear brake light switch for
continuity with a tester. If any abnormality is found,
replace the parking/rear brake lever assembly with a
new one. Refer to “Handlebars Removal and
Installation in Section 6B (Page 6B-3)”.

Refer to “Parking Brake Switch Inspection in Section 1I
(Page 1I-8)”.
Brake Fluid Level Check
B827H14106007
Refer to “Front Brake System Inspection in Section 0B
(Page 0B-15)”.
Front Brake Hose Inspection
B827H14106008
Refer to “Front Brake System Inspection in Section 0B
(Page 0B-15)”.
Air Bleeding from Front Brake Fluid Circuit
B827H14106009
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
!
• Make sure that the vehicle is holded
securely.
• Handle brake fluid with care: the fluid
reacts chemically with paint, plastic,
rubber materials, etc.
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.
