Anti-Lock Brake Safety Precautions
1993 Eagle Summit Wagon AWD, 1.8 C, StandardSECTION Anti-Lock Brake Safety Precautions
- NEVER open a bleeder valve or loosen a hydraulic line while ABS is pressurized
- NEVER disconnect or reconnect any electrical connectors while ignition is on. Damage to ABS control unit may result.
- DO NOT attempt to bleed hydraulic system without first referring to the appropriate article.
- Only use specially designed brake hoses/lines on ABS-equipped vehicles.
- DO NOT tap on speed sensor components (sensor, sensor rings). Speed rings must be pressed, NOT hammered into hubs. Striking these components can cause demagnetization or a loss of polarization, affecting the accuracy of the speed signal returning to the ABS control unit.
- DO NOT mix tire sizes. Increasing the width, as long as tires remain close to the original diameter, is acceptable. Rolling diameter must be identical for all 4 tires. Some manufacturers recommend tires of the same brand, style and type. Failure to follow this precaution may cause inaccurate wheel speed readings.
- DO NOT contaminate speed sensor components with grease. Only use recommended anti-corrosion coating.
- When speed sensor components have been removed, ALWAYS check sensor-to-ring air gaps when applicable. These specifications can be found in each appropriate article.
- ONLY use recommended brake fluids. DO NOT use silicone brake fluids in an ABS-equipped vehicle.
- When installing transmitting devices (CB's, telephones, etc.) on ABS-equipped vehicles, DO NOT locate the antenna near the ABS control unit (or any control unit).
- Disconnect all on-board computers, when using electric welding equipment.
- DO NOT expose the ABS control unit to prolonged periods of high heat (185Β°F/85Β°C for 2 hours is generally considered a maximum limit).
