Braking Sensor/Switch: Adjustments
Brake Pedal and Brake Pedal Position Switch AdjustmentPedal Height
1. Turn the brake pedal position switch (A) counterclockwise, and pull it back until it is no longer touching the brake pedal.
2. Pull back the carpet and find the cutout in the insulator. Lift up the insulator cutout and measure the pedal height (B) at the middle of the left side center of the pedal pad (C) to the floor.
Standard pedal height (with carpet removed): 155 mm (6 1/8 in.)
Brake Pedal Position Switch Clearance
3. Lift up on the brake pedal by hand. Push in the brake pedal position switch until its plunger is fully pressed (the threaded end (A) touches the pad (B) on the pedal arm). Then back off the switch 3/4 turn to make 0.7 mm (0.03 in.) of clearance between the threaded end and pad. Tighten the locknut securely Connect the brake pedal position switch connector. Make sure the brake lights go off when the pedal is released.
Pedal Free Play
1. With the engine off, inspect the pedal free play (A) on the pedal pad (B) by pushing the pedal by hand.
2. If the pedal free play is out of specification, adjust the brake pedal position switch (C). If the brake pedal free play is insufficient, it may result in excessive brake drag.
