CAUTION:
Remove the floor trim.

ASCD Brake Switch and Stop Lamp Switch





Check the clearance (C1 and C2) among ASCD brake switch (1) threaded end, stop lamp switch (2) threaded end and the stopper rubber (3).

C1 : Specifications "Brake Pedal".
C2 : Specifications "Brake Pedal".

CAUTION:
The stop lamp must turn off when the brake pedal is released.

NOTE:
Pull the brake pedal pad to make the clearance between the stop lamp switch threaded end and the stopper rubber. (The stopper rubber hits ASCD brake switch threaded end.)

Brake Pedal Play





Press the brake pedal. Check the brake pedal play (A) (stroke until fluid pressure occurs).

Depressed Brake Pedal Height





Check the height between the dash lower panel (1) and the brake pedal upper surface (H2) when depressing the brake pedal at 490 N
(50 kg, 110 lb) while turning engine ON.

H2 : Specifications "Brake Pedal".


CAUTION:
Remove the floor trim.
