Clutch Interlock/Upstop Switch - RHD

CLUTCH INTERLOCK/UPSTOP SWITCH


REMOVAL - RHD





1. Disconnect the master cylinder push rod from the pedal pin (Fig. 23). Inspect push rod retainer for damage. If it is damaged (broken/cracked), it must be replaced.
2. Squeeze together the tangs on the switch cover plate and slide the plate off the switch housing.
3. Disconnect the clutch interlock/upstop switch connector from the instrument panel wiring harness.
4. Remove the switch from the vehicle.





INSTALLATION - RHD

NOTE: Proper switch harness routing is critical to switch durability. Note the harness routing and location of fasteners intended to keep wires from contacting pedals.

1. Install the clutch interlock/upstop switch onto the master cylinder push rod, making sure that the push rod is oriented with the push rod retainer toward the wiring of the switch. The master cylinder push rod must be snapped into the clutch interlock/upstop switch along the smaller diameter of the push rod between the snap ring and the transition to the larger diameter.

CAUTION: Improper assembly of the larger diameter of the push rod into the clutch interlock/upstop switch could cause damage to the switch or a clutch system failure.

2. Install the switch cover plate.

CAUTION: Inspect the plastic push rod retainer for damage. If it is damaged (broken/cracked), it MUST be replaced.

3. Connect clutch master cylinder pushrod to the clutch pedal pin.
4. Route the wiring harness as it was prior to removal.
5. Secure the switch connector retaining push pin into the appropriate hole in the pedal bracket assembly.
