5-42BRAKES - Service Adjustment Procedures
BRAKE FLUID LEVEL SENSOR CHECKNO5FBAB(1) Connect a circuit tester to the brake fluid level sensor.
4(2) Move the float from top to bottom and check for
.-,’continuity.
(3) The brake fluid level sensor is in good condition if there is
no continuity when the float surface is above “A”, and if
there is continuity when the float
surface is below “A”.
PARKING BRAKE LEVER STROKE CHECK NWFEAJ
1.Pull the parking brake lever with a force of approx. 200 N(45
Ibs.), and count the number of notches.
Caution
The 200 N (45 Ibs.) force of the parking brake lever must
be strictly observed.
Standard value: 5-7 notches
2.If the parking brake lever stroke is not the standard value,
adjust as described below.
(1) Remove the carpet in the floor console.
(2) Loosen the adjusting nut to the end of the cable rod,
fithus freeing the parking brake cable.
(3) With the engine idling, firmly depress the brake pedal
five or six times and confirm that the pedal stroke stops
changing.
NOTEIf the pedal stroke stops changing, it indicates that the
automatic adjusting mechanism has functioned proper-ly to adjust the clearance between the pads and the
disc to the correct value.
(4) Check to be sure that the clearance between the
stopper and the parking brake lever at the caliper side isas shown in the figure.
NOTEIf the clearance between the parking brake lever and
the stopper exceeds 2 mm
(078 in.), the probable
causes are brake cable sticking, improper wiring, or a
malfunction of the automatic adjuster (within the rear
brake caliper), so it is necessary to check the parking
-brake cable and to disassemble and check the rear
-brake caliper.
(5) Turn the adjusting nut to adjust the parking brake lever
stroke to within the standard value range.

OUTPUT VOLTAGE VARIATIONS
ABS>N65FOAO
(1) Jack up the vehicle and release the parking brake.
(2) Disconnect the electronic control unit harness connector,
and measure the speed sensor output voltage at the
vehicle side harness connector.
(3) With an AWD model, put the shift lever in
1st (MTT) or L(A/T) position, rotate the wheels and observe the wave
shape for each wheel. With an FWD model, put the shift
lever in
1st (M/T) or L (AiT) position, rotate the wheels and
observe the wave shape for the front wheels; for the rear
wheels, rotate the wheels by hand and monitor the wave
shape.
NOTEIt is also
allright to actually drive the car.

Wave shape monitoring points
IS THE OUTPUTVOLTAGE (AMPLITUDE) TOO LOW OR ISTHERE NO OUTPUT VOLTAGE?
If it is too low, check each wheel speed sensor,
With FWD rear wheels, check the sensor gap.
IS THERE VARIATION IN THE WAVE SHAPE AMPLITUDE?
If the flicker of the amplitude is large, consider shaking
of the axle hub.
IS THERE NOISE IN THE WAVE SHAPE OR DISTORTION?Broken or disconnected wire due to vibration or
installation malfunction of the wheel speed sensor.
Check rotor teeth meshing, breaks, etc.
