PROPORTIONING VALVE FUNCTION TEST <Vehicles without ABS>



1.Connect two pressure gauges to the output port of the master cylinder and output port of the proportioning valve.
Tightening torque: 16 ± 3 N·m
2.Bleed the brake line and the pressure gauges (Refer to ).

3.Depress the brake pedal gradually. Then check that the split point, where the output fluid pressure begins to drop in proportion to the output fluid pressure, is at the standard value.
Standard value: 2.25 - 2.65 MPa
4.Depress the brake pedal more strongly than at the above step. Then check that the output fluid pressure is at the standard value when the input fluid pressure is 6.37 MPa.
Standard value: 2.34 - 3.14 MPa
5.Measure each output fluid pressure at both valves, and check that the difference between the two is at the limit value or less.
Limit: 0.4 MPa
6.If the measured pressure exceeds the limit, replace the proportioning valve.
