(f) Install the stop light switch and turn it until it lightly con-
tacts the pedal stopper.
(g) Turn the stop light switch back one turn.
(h) Check the clearance (A) between the stop light switch and pedal.
Clearance: 0.5 − 2.4 mm (0.020 − 0.094 in.)
(i) Tighten the stop light switch lock nut.
(j) Connect the connector to the stop light switch.
(k) Check that the stop lights come on when the brake pedal
is depressed, and go off when the brake pedal is re-
leased.
(l) earance (A) between the stop light switch and the pedal
stopper has been adjusted correctly, the pedal freeplay
will meet the specifications.
3. CHECK PEDAL FREEPLAY
(a) Stop the engine and depress the brake pedal several times until there is no more vacuum left in the booster.
(b) Push in the pedal by hand until the beginning of the se- cond resistance is felt. Measure the distance.
Pedal freeplay: 3 − 6 mm (0.12 − 0.24 in.)
HINT:
The freeplay to the 1st resistance is due to the play between the
clevis and pin. This is magnified up to 3 − 6 mm (0.12 − 0.24 in.)
at the pedal.
