Caution
If the number of brake lever notches engaged is less
than the standard value, the cable has been pulledexcessively, and failure of the automatic adjuster
mechanism will result. Be sure tti adjust it to within the
standard value.(6) After making the adjustment, check to be sure that there is
no play between the adjusting nut and the pin. Also check
to be sure that the adjusting nut is securely held at the nut
holder.(7) After adjusting the lever stroke, jack up the rear of the
vehicle.(8) With the parking brake lever in the released position, turn
the rear wheel to confirm that the rear brakes are not
dragging.
PARKING BRAKE SWITCH CHECKN05FDAB
(1) Disconnect the connector of the parking brake switch, and
connect an ohmmeter to the parking brake switch and the
switch installation bolt.
(2) The parking brake switch is good if there is continuity whenthe parking brake lever is pulled and there is no continuity
when it is returned.
BRAKE BOOSTER OPERATING
lNSPECTIONNoSFcuFor simple checking of brake booster operation, carry out the
following tests.
(1) Run the engine for one or two minutes, and then stop it.
(2) Step on the brake pedal several times with normal
pressure.If the pedal depressed fully the first time. but gradually
becomes higher when depressed succeeding times, the
booster is operating properly.
If the pedal height remains unchanged, the booster is
faulty.(3) With the engine stopped, step on the brake pedal several
times with the same pressure to make sure that the pedal
height will not change.
Then step on the brake pedal and start the engine.
If the pedal moves downward slightly, the booster is in
good condition. If there is no change, the booster is faulty.
(4) With the engine running, step on the brake pedal and then
stop the engine.
Hold the pedal depressed for 30 seconds. If the pedal
height does not change, the booster is in good condition.
If the pedal rises, the booster is faulty.
If the above three tests are okay, the booster performance canbe determined as good.
If one of the above three tests is not okay at last, the check
valve, vacuum hose, or booster will be faulty.

NOSFNAJ
When checking the check valve, keep the check valve fit in thevacuum hose.
1. Remove the vacuum hose.
Caution
The check valve is press-fit inside the vacuum hose and
do not remove the check valve from the vacuum hose.
2.Check the operation of the check valve by using a vacuum
pump.Vacuum pump connection Accept/reject criteria

NOSFKAJ
1.Connect two pressure gauges, one each to the input side
and output side of the proportioning valve, as shown.
2. Air bleed the brake line and the pressure gauge.
3. While gradually depressing the brake pedal, make the
following measurements and check to be sure that the
measured values are within the allowable range.
(1) Output pressure begins to drop relative to input
pressure (split point).
Standard value:3.95-4.45
MPa (561-633 psi)3.45-3.95
MPa (491-561 psi)
(2) Output fluid pressure when input fluid pressure are as
follows.
Standard value:

[at 8.2
MPa (1,163 psi)]4.65-5.15
MPa (661-732 psi)
[at 7.7
MPa (1,095 psi)],
(3) Output pressure difference between left and right
brake lines
Limit: 0.4
MPa (57 psi)
4. If the measured pressures are not within the
permissibleranges, replace the proportioning valve.

1.Remove the caliper support, raise the caliper assembly, and Ir.secure it by using a wire, etc.
-u/2. Place a dial gauge approximately 5 mm
(2 in.) from the
outer circumference of the brake disc, and measure the
run-out of the disc.
Limit: 0.08 mm
(.0031 in.)
NOTETo secure the disc to the hub, tighten the nuts.
REAR BRAKE DISC RUN-OUT CORRECTIONNWFXAA
1.If the run-out of the brake disc is equivalent to or exceeds
the limit specification, change the phase of the disc and
hub, and then measure the run-out again.
rc
NOTEThe procedures for checking by changing the installation
phase of the disc are the same as those for the front brakediscs. (Refer to
P.5-48.)
2.If the problem cannot be corrected by changing the phase
of the brake disc, replace the disc.
