10.11 ABS Bleeding
Anytime the brake system is opened to replace components such as calipers,
wheel cylinders, the master cylinder, or brake lines or hoses, air gets inside.
The air has to be removed by bleeding the brakes if you want a firm brake
pedal. Air trapped in the lines, calipers or wheel cylinders will make the pedal
feel soft and spongy. Air is compressible, so when the brakes are applied any
air bubbles in the system must first be compressed before the hydraulic fluid
will transmit pressure to apply the brakes.
10.12 Immobilizer
The transponder key is an aftermarket option that can be programmed for a
number of vehicles. Also known as a chip key or ignition key, this key offers a
level of convenience and security for your car. If your car is equipped with a
chip key system, only a programmed key can turn on the ignition in your
vehicle.
