Brake System Leak Check
- Make sure the brake master cylinder reservoir is full.
- Apply the brakes several times and make sure the brake pedal feel is not spongy. If necessary, bleed the system. For additional information, refer to Brake System Bleeding .
- If the brake reservoir level is going down, inspect the brake components, fittings, tubes and hoses to locate the source of the leak.
NOTE:
Brake fluid is water soluble and it is possible that all evidence of fluid leakage has been washed off if the vehicle has been operated in the rain or snow.
