SUNROOF ASSEMBLY
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONM1426000100234
A motor-driven inner slide-type glass sunroof with a
tilt-up mechanism is available in some models as a
standard or optional equipment. Even when the sun-
roof is fully closed, a sufficient amount of lighting and
a feeling of openness can still be obtained by open-
ing the sunroof sunshade.
SUNROOF DIAGNOSISM1426000700311
The sunroof system is controlled by the Simplified
Wiring System (SWS). Refer to GROUP 54B, SWS
Diagnosis P.54B-57.
SPECIAL TOOLM1426000600228
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
WAT E R T ES TM1426000900274
Check if there are any leaks in the sunroof by the following pro-
cedure.
1. Fully close the roof lid glass.
2. Adjust the water pressure so that water comes out of the
hose to a height of approximately 50 cm (19.7 inches) when
the hose is held vertically facing upwards.
3. Hold the end of the hose approximately 30 cm (11.8 inches)
above the roof and let the water run onto the weatherstrip for
5 minutes or more.
4. Check if any water leaks can be found in the room while
watering. Even though there are any water leaks around the
roof lid glass, it can be acceptable as long as water is caught
in the drip area. TOOL TOOL NUMBER AND

GENERAL INFORMATION
M1211000100234
The clutch is a dry single-disc, diaphragm type;
hydraulic pressure is used for the clutch control. The
clutch shares a brake fluid reservoir with the brake
system.

Do not push in the master cylinder pushrod at
this time, otherwise the clutch will not operate
properly.
4. If the clutch pedal height and clutch pedal clevis
pin play are not within the standard value, loosen
the setting nut to adjust the clutch pedal height
and clevis pin play to the standard value.
5. Check the clutch pedal switch clearance is within
specification when pedal height is adjusted
correctly and is positioned at rest. If adjustment is
required, loosen nut and rotate switch to achieve
correct clearance.
Switch clearance value (C): 0.5
1.5 mm
Nut tightening torque : 10 - 15 Nm6. After completing the adjustments, confirm that the
clutch pedal free play clearance (measured
between pedal switch and bracket) and the
distance between the clutch pedal (the face of the
pedal pad) and the clutch pedal stopper when the
clutch is disengaged are within the standard value
ranges.
Standard value (C): 0.5
1.5 mm
Standard value (D): 35 mm or more
7. If the clutch pedal free play and the distance
between the clutch pedal and the clutch pedal
stopper or toeboard when the clutch is
disengaged do not agree with the standard
values, it is probably the result of either air in the
hydraulic system or a faulty master cylinder,
release cylinder or clutch. Bleed the air, or
disassemble and inspect the master cylinder,
release cylinder or clutch.
CLUTCH BLEEDINGM1211001400205
Use the specified brake fluid. Do not mix brake
fluids.
Specified fluid: Brake fluid DOT 3 or DOT 4
1. Connect a hose with a bottle to the bleeder screw.
2. Open the bleed nipple.
3. Depress the clutch pedal slowly. Open the bleeder
screw to let air and brake fluid out. Close the
bleeder screw. Release the clutch pedal. Repeat
until only brake fluid and no air comes out.
4. Check that the brake fluid reservoir level stays
between "MAX" and "MIN" marks throughout the
clutch bleeding process.

BRAKE PEDAL HEIGHT
1. Turn up the carpet, etc. under the brake pedal.
2. Measure the brake pedal height as illustrated.
Standard value: 168..5
171.5 mm A/T
Standard value: 169.4
172.4 mm - M/T
[From the surface of dash panel to the face of pedal
pad]
3. If the brake pedal height is not within the standard value,
follow the procedure below.
(1) Disconnect the stoplight switch connector.
(2) Remove the brake booster (Refer to P.35A-26).
NOTE: With the master cylinder and brake pipe con-
nected, remove the brake booster only.
(3) Adjust the brake pedal height by turning the clevis.
NOTE: When the clevis is turned 180 degrees, the pedal
height is changed by approximately 2.2 mm (0.09 in).
(4) Install the brake booster (Refer to P.35A-26).
(5) Measure the brake pedal height, and ensure that the
measured value is within the specified value. If it is out of
the specified value, repeat Step (3) - (6).
(6) Screw in the stop light switch until its thread contacts the
stopper, and fix the stop light switch by turning it
approximately one quarter of a turn clockwise.
(7) Check that the clearance between the stop light switch
and the stopper is as shown.
Check that the stop light does not illuminate when the
brake pedal is not depressed.
(8) Connect the connector at the stop light switch.
4. Return the carpet, etc. to its original position.

BRAKE PEDAL FREE PLAY
1. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position, and
depress the brake pedal two or three times. After eliminating
the vacuum in the brake booster, press the pedal down by
hand, and confirm that the amount of movement before
resistance is met (free play) is within the standard value
range.
Standard value: 3
8 mm (0.12 0.31 inch)
2. If the brake pedal play is not within the standard value,
check the following, and adjust or replace if necessary:
Excessive play between the brake pedal and the clevis pin,
or between the clevis pin and the brake booster operating
rod
Brake pedal height
Installation position of the stop light switch, etc.
CLEARANCE BETWEEN BRAKE PEDAL AND
DASH PANEL
1. Turn up the carpet, etc. under the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine, depress the brake pedal with
approximately 500 N (112 pounds) of force, and measure
the clearance between the brake pedal and the dash panel.
Standard value: 110 mm (4.33 inches) or more [From
the surface of dash panel to the face of pedal pad]
3. If the clearance is outside the standard value, check for air
trapped in the brake line and check the thickness of the disc
brake pad. Andjust and replace defective parts as required.
4. Return the carpet etc. to its original position.
BRAKE BOOSTER OPERATING TESTM1351001000372
1. For simple checking of the brake booster operation, carry
out the following tests:
(1) Run the engine for one or two minutes, and then stop it. If
the pedal depresses 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 defective. Go to step 2.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM35A-15
(2) With the engine stopped, step on the brake pedal several
times. 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
defective. Go to step 3.
(3) 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
defective.
2. If the above three tests are okay, the booster is OK. If one of
the above three tests is not okay, the check valve, vacuum
hose, or booster is defective. Check the check valve (Refer
to P.35A-15), vacuum hose for leaks, high volume engine
vacuum applied to booster. Repair or replace as necessary.
If these are OK, replace booster and repeat this test starting
at Step 1.
CHECK VALVE OPERATION CHECKM1351009000376
The check valve should not be removed from the vacuum
hose.
1. Remove the vacuum hose. (Refer to P.35A-26).
If the check valve is defective, replace it as an assembly
together with the vacuum hose.
2. Check the operation of the check valve by using a vacuum
pump.
