  • This test must be carried out after the hydraulic unit has been exchanged!

The swap test is used to check the allocation of the brake pressure lines to the wheel brake cylinders. A hydraulic and an electrical test are carried out.

  5. Press the ">>" key. Then check if the front left wheel is rotatable but all others lock up. Confirm with the appropriate key ("yes"/"No") and the ">>" key.
