Bleeding The Assistance Circuit - PEUGEOT Satelis 500 Workshop Manual

SERVICING THE ABS/MBS SYSTEM

Bleeding the assistance circuit.

Note: Before servicing the assistance sys-
tem you must absolutely be sure that
the battery is perfectly charged, as a
considerable voltage drop would
immediately turn off the assistance
pump.
- Connect the additional reservoir equipped
with a transparent pipe to the modulator's
reservoir screw plug (1) and fill
- Open the screw plug by 2 or 3 turns.
- Connect the reservoir containing brake fluid
to the front brake calliper bleed screw using
a transparent pipe. The reservoir must be
kept higher than the brake calliper to easily
check that the air bubbles are being
expelled.
- Open the bleed screw by 1 to 2 turns.
- Turn on the ignition.
- Connect the diagnostic tool and actuate the
modulator pump.
- Regularly add brake fluid in the additional
reservoir.
- Stop the operation when there are no more
bubbles in the transparent pipe.
- Close the bleeder screw.
As a precautionary measure, the pump
shall not continuously operate for
more than 2 minutes.
