Slave Cylinder Replacement
NOTE:
- Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted surfaces.
- Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if brake fluid does contact the paint, wash it off immediately with water.
- Make sure not to get any silicone grease on the terminal part of the connectors and switches, especially if you have silicone grease on your hands or gloves.
- Remove the banjo bolt (A) and washers (B), then disconnect the clutch hose (C) from the slave cylinder (D). Plug the end of the clutch hose with a shop towel to prevent brake fluid from coming out.
