Description of Defect
ABS Warning Light Issue in Mitsubishi Pajero
During maintenance work such as replenishing or replacing brake fluid, brake fluid may accidentally adhere to the hydraulic braking system (hydraulic brake booster) and the adhering brake fluid may be washed off with water, causing brake fluid to enter the pump motor of the hydraulic braking system and corrosion inside the motor.
This may cause the pump motor to malfunction, resulting in the ABS warning light illuminating and the brake warning buzzer blowing.
If the pump motor continues to be used in this condition, the brake fluid pressure will be insufficient and the tread force required to operate the brakes will increase.
Improvement Details
Check the production lot of the hydraulic braking doubler and replace the pump motor and gasket if applicable.
