BRAKE PEDAL CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT
BRAKE PEDAL HEIGHT
1. Turn up the carpet, etc. under the brake pedal.
2. Measure the brake pedal height as illustrated.
Standard value (A):
<L.H. drive vehicles> 201 ± 204 mm
<R.H. drive vehicles> 201.7 ± 204.7 mm
3. If the brake pedal height is not within the standard value,
follow the procedure below.
(1) Disconnect the stop lamp switch connector.
(2) Loosen the stop lamp switch by turning it approx.
1/4 turns anticlockwise.
(3) Remove the pin, and then adjust so that the brake
pedal height meets the standard value by turning the
clevis.
NOTE
When the clevis is turned 180°, the pedal height is
changed approximately 2.3 mm.
(4) Screw in the stop lamp switch until it touches the
stopper. At this time, support the brake pedal to the
highest position by hand.
(5) Lock the stop lamp switch by turning it approx. 1/4
turns clockwise, and confirm that the clearance
between the switch plunger and the stopper is as
shown.
(6) Connect the connector at the stop lamp switch.
Caution
Check that the stop lamp does not illuminate when
the brake pedal is not depressed.
4. For A/T, check the key interlock and shift lock mechanisms.
(Refer to GROUP 23 ± On-vehicle Service.)
5. Return the carpet, etc.
