Traction System Bleeding
Hi everybody, I have somewhat of a stupid question(better to say it out loud). Next weekend I will be doing my brakes, so far TRAC system bleeding seems to appear in every post when it comes to brake bleeding. I am understand the whole thing with how to bleed it, however I do have a problem with finding the TRAC actuator and accumulator. Does anybody have a clear picture if possible real one not from the manual? Furthermore is it possible that perhaps my 95 does not have traction control? I just went to my car and for the life of me can not find it. The manual pictures do not resemble any item under the hood. The actuator should be on the right side and the accumulator on the left, kind of oposite diagonally. Help. I usually do all of my maintenance on this car so I should be able to spot these two items, unless the age is catching up with me. Thanks guys.

Hello,
do you have the trac button located at the ashtray?
The accumulator should be next to the brake fluid reservoir under the cover.
The actuator is on the passenger side right behind the watercooler under the airinlet.
Thats all for the 89-94 model, but your 95 shouldnt be that different.

Thanks Christian for your response, I took a look of about twenty different Ls 400 95 engine bays on Ebay and autotrader. It gave me a clear picture of traction control locations in relation to my car. I don't have the traction control on my ls. So this weekend the bleeding of my breaks should be a lot simpler. Thank you very much for your response. I just wanted to cover all the details before I start replacing brakes.
