Clutch Switch: Adjustments

Clutch Pedal and Clutch Pedal Position Switch Adjustment

NOTE:
- To check the clutch switch.
- The clutch is self-adjusting to compensate for wear.
- If there is no clearance between the master cylinder piston and push rod, the release bearing is held against the diaphragm spring, which can result in clutch slippage or other clutch problems.
