(a) Inspect the Park/Neutral position switch.
(1) Remove the park/neutral position switch
(See page AX-19).
(2) Using an ohmmeter, check continuity between each
terminal shown below when the shift lever is put in
each position.
If the continuity is not as specified, replace the switch.
(b) Inspect the O/D OFF indicator light.
(1) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(2) The O/D OFF indicator light will come on when the
O/D main switch is in OFF position.
(3) The O/D OFF indicator light will go on when the O/D
main switch is placed at ON.
(c) Inspect the O/D solenoid valve.
(1) Disconnect the solenoid connector.
(2) Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance be-
tween terminals 1 and 3.
Resistance: 11 - 15 W
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the solenoid.
(3) Apply battery positive voltage between terminals 1
and 3. At this time, confirm that a solenoid operation
sound is heard.
If the operation is not as specified, replace the solenoid.
(4) Connect the solenoid connector.

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK PEDAL HEIGHT
Pedal height from asphalt sheet:
EZ Grade:
143.0 - 153.0 mm (5.630 - 6.024 in.)
Except EZ Grade:
140.0 - 150.0 mm (5.512 - 5.906 in.)
If the pedal height is incorrect, adjust it.
2. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST PEDAL HEIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the stop light switch.
(b) Loosen the stop light switch lock nut and remove the stop
light switch.
(c) Loosen the push rod lock nut.
(d) Adjust the pedal height by turning the pedal push rod.
(e) Tighten the push rod lock nut.
Torque: 25 N´m (260 kgf´cm, 19 ft´lbf)
(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 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 the stop lights come on when the brake pedal is de-
pressed, and go off when the brake pedal is released.
(l) After adjusting the pedal height, check the pedal freeplay.
HINT:
If clearance (A) between the stop light switch and the brack ped-
al 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 resistance begins to
be felt, then measure the distance, as shown.
Pedal freeplay: 1 - 6 mm (0.04 - 0.24 in.)
If incorrect, check the stop light switch clearance. If the clear-
ance is OK, then troubleshoot the brake system.
4. CHECK PEDAL RESERVE DISTANCE
(a) Release the parking brake.
(b) With the engine running, depress the pedal and measure
the pedal reserve distance.
Pedal reserve distance from asphalt sheet at 490 N
(50 kgf, 110.2 lbf):
w/o ABS: More than 60 mm (2.36 in.)
w/ ABS: More than 55 mm (2.17 in.)
If the reserve distance is incorrect, troubleshoot the brake sys-
tem.

DISASSEMBLY
1. REMOVE RESERVOIR
(a) Remove the set screw and pull out the reservoir.
Torque: 1.7 N´m (17.5 kgf´cm, 15.2 in.´lbf)
(b) Remove the cap and strainer from the reservoir.
2. REMOVE 2 GROMMETS
3. PLACE CYLINDER IN VISE
4. REMOVE PISTON STOPPER BOLT
Using a screwdriver, push the pistons in all the way and remove
the piston stopper bolt and gasket.
HINT:
Tape the screwdriver tip before use.
Torque: 10 N´m (100 kgf´cm, 7 ft´lbf)
5. REMOVE PISTONS
(a) Push in the piston with a screwdriver and remove the
snap ring with snap ring pliers.
(b) Remove the No.1 piston and spring by hand, pulling
straight out, not at an angle.
NOTICE:
If pulled out and installed at an angle, there is a possi-
bility that the cylinder bore could be damaged.
Be careful not to damage the rubber lips on the pis-
tons.
(c) Place a rag and 2 wooden blocks on the work table and
lightly tap the cylinder flange against the block edges until
the No.2 piston drops out of the cylinder.
HINT:
Make sure the distance (A) from the rag to the top of the blocks
is at least 100 mm (3.94 in.).

BRAKE BOOSTER ASSEMBLY
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. OPERATING CHECK
(a) Depress the brake pedal several times with the engine off
and check that there is no change in the pedal reserve
distance.
(b) Depress the brake pedal and start the engine. If the pedal
goes down slightly, operation is normal.
2. AIR TIGHTNESS CHECK
(a) Start the engine and stop it after 1 or 2 minutes. Depress
the brake pedal several times slowly.
If the pedal goes down farthest the 1st time, but gradually rises
after the 2nd or 3rd time, the booster is air tight.
(b) Depress the brake pedal while the engine is running, and
stop the engine with the pedal depressed. If there is no
change in the pedal reserve travel after holding the pedal
for 30 seconds, the booster is air tight.
