BRAKE PEDAL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [R.H.D.]

id041100801252

Replacement part

Caution

•  Before installing the brake switch to the brake pedal, always verify that the brake pedal is correctly installed and the brake pedal has returned completely. The clearance between the brake switch and the brake pedal is automatically adjusted to the normal clearance when inserting the brake switch into the brake pedal installation hole, rotating, and securing. If the brake switch is not correctly installed, it is not the normal clearance and it could occur a brake light illumination malfunction.

•  When performing the work which the pedal stroke changes, such as power brake unit or pedal replacement, always replace the brake switch with a new one because the brake switch cannot adjust the clearance which has already been adjusted again.

1.  Disconnect the negative battery terminal. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

2.  Disconnect the brake pipes from the master cylinder. (See MASTER CYLINDER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [R.H.D.].)

3.  Remove in the order shown in the figure.

4.  Install in the reverse order of removal.

5.  After installation, add brake fluid and perform the air bleeding/fluid leakage inspection. (See BRAKE FLUID AIR BLEEDING.)
