2. Damaged hydraulic system 2. Repair the hydraulic system.
Piston does not move. 1. No pressure to brake 1. Fill the reservoir to the correct level with specified fluid.
2. Piston not straight in the bore 2. If piston diameter is less than 2.995 inches
(76.073 mm): Replace piston.
If caliper bore diameter is greater the 3.003 inches
(76.276 mm): Replace the caliper housing.
If tapered lining wear exists: Replace the linings. Remove
dirt and other material between the lining and piston.
Brake leaks. 1. Loose bleeder screw 1. Tighten the bleeder screw to 100-180 lb-in. (11.3-20.3 N•m).
If the leak continues, replace the bleeder screw.
2. Loose inlet fitting 2. Tighten the inlet fitting. If the leak continues, replace the O-ring.
3. Damaged inlet fitting 3. Replace the inlet fitting.
4. Worn or damaged piston, 4. Inspect the piston and housing bore for wear and damage.
