1. Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect the negative (-) battery cable.
2. Remove the crash pad lower panel and reinforcing panel.
3. Remove the shower duct (A).




4. Pull down steering column shaft after removing bolts and nuts.
5. Disconnect the stop lamp switch connector (A).




6. Disconnect the brake pedal sensor connector (A).




7. Remove the brake pedal member mounting nut (B).

Tightening torque:
9.8 - 14.7 N.m (1.0 - 1.5 kgf.m, 7.2 - 10.8 lb-ft)




8. Remove the snap pin (A) and clevis pin (B).




9. Remove the brake pedal member assembly mounting nuts (A) and then remove the brake pedal assembly.

Tightening torque:
12.7 - 15.6 N.m (1.3 - 1.6 kgf.m, 9.4 - 11.6 lb-ft)





NOTE:
Push the brake booster and then remove the hook after raising the brake pedal when removing the brake pedal assembly.

Inspection

1. Check the bushing for wear.
2. Check the brake pedal for bending or twisting.
3. Check the brake pedal return spring for damage.
4. Check the stop lamp switch.
(1) Connect a circuit tester to the connector of stop lamp switch, and check whether or not there is continuity when the plunger of the stop lamp switch is pushed in and when it is released.
(2) The stop lamp switch is in good condition if there is no continuity when plunger(A) is pushed.






Installation

1. Installation is the reverse of removal.

CAUTION:
- Before installing the pin, apply the grease to the clevis pin.
- Use a new snap pin whenever installing.

2. Adjust the brake pedal height and free play.
3. Check the brake pedal operation.
4. Conduct calibration after removing the brake pedal assembly.

Adjustment

Stop lamp switch clearance adjustment
If the gap between stop lamp switch and bracket is not 1.0 - 2.0mm(0.04 - 0.08in), conform to below.
1. Disconnect the stop lamp switch connector (B).




2. Pull the locking plate (A) as indicated by the arrow.




3. Turn stop lamp switch 45° counterclockwise and remove it.




4. Fix the brake pedal arm and insert fully the stop lamp switch as hiding contact part.




5. After inserting, turn the stop switch (A) 45° clockwise, and then assemble locking plate (B) by pushing.




6. Confirm the gap between stop lamp switch and bracket.

Stop lamp clearance:
1.0 - 2.0 mm (0.04 - 0.08 in.)




7. Connect the stop lamp switch connector.

Brake pedal sensor Calibration
The brake pedal sensor calculates the pedal full stroke according to the preset zero. Therefore, zeroing adjustment is necessary when first installed.
Calibration must be performed as following cases.
- After changing the brake pedal assembly (you cannot change only the sensor)
- After changing the BAU (Brake Actuation Unit)
- When error codes C1380 (calibration) or C1379 (signal error) are detected.

Calibration procedure
The calibration must be done while the vehicle is parked without stepping on the brake pedal and while there is no vibration on the vehicle.

1. Connect the GDS. (CAN line or OBD connector)
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Select calibration of the brake pedal sensor.
4. Follow prompts displayed on the GDS screen to complete brake pedal sensor calibration.




5. Turn ignition switch off after calibration procedure.
6. Confirm success or failure of calibration.
