changing brake fluid reservoir

[royclark]

I have got a new OEM fluid reservoir. To remove my old reservoir Etka says. Unscrew securing bolt and disconnect power plug. To remove reservoir, press down locking lug and at the same time pull brake fluid reservoir out of sealing plugs.

My question is - where is the locking lug ?

Thanks.

I Would guess it's inside via the fill cap. Just a guess have a quick look Roy I haven't got my elsawin to hand but will look tomorrow if that's any good

I remember removing one from a Audi 80 and I think it just pulled out.
Does the new unit not give any clues.

Inside the fill cap is a none removable screen

the locking lugs are the 2 lugs either side of the hole for the cylinder.

Push down on the reservoir to release the tension then pull up quickly so that they don't re-engage.

If I read you correctly.
Remove the bolt that goes through the two lugs, disconnect the electric connector then push down on the top of the reservoir and pull upwards to remove.
