Abstract
A method (purge procedure) for purging a decoupled brake system including: a brake fluid reservoir, a master cylinder, a brake circuit connected to the wheel brakes, a pump equipped with a plunger. A segment of the brake circuit to be purged is isolated by closing the solenoid valves at the extremities of the segment, a vacuum is created with the plunger, and an extremity of this segment is placed in communication with the exterior to evacuate the trapped air bubble.
