19. BRAKE ELECTRIC VACUUM
PUMP (4500 Model) : Inspect the
brake electric vacuum pump
operation every 12 000 km
(7,500 miles) or 12 months,
whichever occurs first.
How to check: This operation could
be difficult and you may choose to
have this done at your dealer
Service Department.
1. Turn the engine control switch to
the "ON" position (not to start the
engine), and press the brake pedal
several times.
2. Check for the noisy sound of the
electric vacuum pump inside the
instrument panel at the same time
as vacuum warning buzzer sound,
and check that the brake low
vacuum warning light comes on.
3. Then, after you start the engine,
the main vacuum pump driven by
the engine will start running. If the
electric vacuum pump operation
(noisy sound) and the vacuum
warning buzzer stop, and the brake
low vacuum warning light goes off
thereafter, the operation is normal.
4. If you cannot hear the noisy
sound of the electric vacuum pump,
check the electrical wiring and
repair as necessary. If it cannot be
repaired, replace the electric
vacuum pump.
