Description & Operation
CLUTCH CABLEFig. 2:
The manual transaxle clutch release system has a unique self-adjusting mechanism to compensate for clutch disc wear. This adjuster mechanism is located within the clutch cable assembly. The preload spring maintains tension on the cable. This tension keeps the clutch release bearing continuously loaded against the fingers of the clutch cover assembly.
CLUTCH PEDAL POSITION SWITCH
The clutch pedal position switch functions as a safety interlock device. It prevents possible engine cranking with the clutch engaged.
The clutch pedal position switch is wired in series between the starter relay coil and the ignition switch.
The clutch pedal position switch is mounted to a bracket located behind the clutch pedal. The switch is held in place by four plastic wing tabs.
