Results of the tests
0PRELIMINARY CHECKSAll OKProblems encounteredOperation
First of all check whether the problem is accompanied by poor braking actionMove on to Step 1There is also poor braking actionProceed as instructed in the diagnosis    See table F001 POOR BRAKING ACTION
1OIL LEAKS CHECKAll OKProblems encounteredOperation
For the 1.9 JTD;Visually inspect for fluid leaks in the braking system circuitMove on to Step 21. Fluid leak detected2. Component defective1. Retighten connectorsOp. 3330A HYDRAULIC BRAKING SYSTEM TESTS AND CHECKS2. Replace the defective component
1OIL LEAKS CHECKAll OKProblems encounteredOperation
For the 1.2 8v, 1.4 8v, 1.3 JTD;Visually inspect for fluid leaks in the braking system circuitMove on to Step 51. Fluid leak detected2. Component defective1. Retighten connectorsOp. 3330A 2. Replace the defective component
2CHECK FOR FLUID LEAKS FROM BRAKE PUMPAll OKProblems encounteredOperation
For the 1.9 JTD;Disconnect the non-return valve connector from the brake servo and introduce a pipe cleaner in order to reach the lowest part of the brake servo chamber. Check that there is no fluid in the chamberMove on to Step 3Fluid in the brake servo chamberReplace brake servo    Op. 3330D02 BRAKE SERVO/BRAKE PUMP ASSEMBLY - R.R.
3CHECK FOR AIR IN THE CIRCUITAll OKProblems encounteredOperation
For the 1.9 JTD;Check for any air in the braking circuitMove on to Step 4Air in the circuitBleed the air from the system
4REAR BRAKE CLEARANCE RECOVERY DEVICE CHECKAll OKProblems encounteredOperation
For the 1.9 JTD;Check that the rear brakes clearance recovery device is working efficientlyEnd of diagnosisRear brake caliper faultyReplace the rear brake caliper involved    Op. 3310B36 REAR BRAKE CALIPER (ONE), LEFT OR RIGHT - R.R
5CHECK THE CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE DRUM AND THE SHOESAll OKProblems encounteredOperation
For the 1.2 8v, 1.4 8v, 1.3 JTD;Check the clearance between the shoes and the drum, measuring the difference between the diameter of the drum and the diameter of the brake measured on the centre line axis of the shoesMove on to Step 7Drum / shoe clearance not correctMove on to Step 6
6CHECK THAT THE SELF-ADJUSTMENT DEVICE IS WORKING PROPERLYAll OKProblems encounteredOperation
For the 1.2 8v, 1.4 8v, 1.3 JTD;Check the operation of the self-adjustment device, activating it several timesMove on to Step 7Incorrect operation of self-adjustment deviceReplace the self-adjustment device
7CHECK ON CORRECT OPERATIONAll OKProblems encounteredOperation
For the 1.2 8v, 1.4 8v, 1.3 JTD;Check that the fault is no longer presentEnd of diagnosisThe fault is still presentCheck the operation of the other parts of the braking system (caliper, pipes, brake pump).
