Led inspection
Check that the leds “a” (fi, fuel, engine rpm, oil pressure/engine coolant, immobilizer (e-02, 19, 24, 51) and meter panel illumination) immediately light up when the ignition switch is turned on.
Check that the other leds “b” (neutral, high-beam and turn signal indicator lights) light up/go off by operating each switch.
If abnormal condition is found, replace the combination meter assembly with a new one after checking its wire harness/coupler. Refer to “combination meter removal and installation” .

Air bleeding from brake fluid circuit
Air trapped in the brake fluid circuit acts like a cushion to
absorb a large proportion of the pressure developed by
the master cylinder and thus interferes with the full
braking performance of the brake caliper. The presence
of air is indicated by “sponginess” of the brake lever and
also by la ...
