   2. Check the brake pedal height.

      Note

      
      

      • Inspect and adjust the brake pedal height with the floor carpet folded back.

      • When performing the measurement, make sure that the measuring device is contacting the surface of the dash panel insulator assembly clip.

      
      

      1. Measure the shortest distance between the brake pedal pad surface and dash panel insulator assembly clip.

         

         *1	Brake Pedal Pad	*2	Dash Panel Insulator Assembly Clip
         *a	Brake Pedal Height	-	-

         Brake Pedal Height from Dash Panel Insulator Assembly Clip
         173.5 to 185.5 mm (6.83 to 7.30 in.)

         Tech Tips

         for Manual Transaxle:

         Perform the inspection with the clutch pedal depressed.

         If the pedal height is not as specified, adjust the brake pedal height according to the procedure below.

   3. Adjust the brake pedal height.

      
      
      1. 

         *1	Stop Light Switch Assembly
         *2	Clevis Lock Nut
         *3	Dash Panel Insulator Assembly Clip
         *a	Brake Pedal Height

         Remove the stop light switch assembly.

      2. Loosen the clevis lock nut.

      3. Adjust the brake pedal height by turning the push rod.

         Brake Pedal Height from Dash Panel Insulator Assembly Clip
         173.5 to 185.5 mm (6.83 to 7.30 in.)

      4. Tighten the clevis lock nut.

         Torque:

         22 N*m  { 224 kgf*cm, 16 ft.*lbf }

      5. Install the stop light switch assembly.

2. INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL FREE PLAY

   
   
   1. 

      *a	Brake Pedal Free Play

      Depress the brake pedal until a slight resistance is felt. Measure the brake pedal free play as shown in the illustration.

      Brake Pedal Free Play
      1.0 to 6.0 mm (0.0394 to 0.236 in.)

      If the pedal free play is not as specified, check the stop light switch clearance.

      If the pedal free play is as specified, proceed to the Inspect Brake Pedal Reserve Distance procedure.

3. INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL RESERVE DISTANCE

   
   

   1. With the engine running, depress the brake pedal and measure the brake pedal reserve distance as shown in the illustration.

      

      *1	Brake Pedal Pad	-	-
      *a	Brake Pedal Reserve Distance	*b	Floor Panel
      *c	30 mm (1.18 in.)	*d	Line Extended from Floor Panel Surface

      Brake Pedal Reserve Distance from Line Extended from Floor Panel Surface at 300 N (31 kgf, 67.4 lbf)
      115.0 mm (4.53 in.) or more

      If the distance is not as specified, troubleshoot the brake system.
