Notice: Proper stoplamp switch adjustment is essential. Improper stoplamp switch
adjustment could cause brake drag and excessive brake lining wear.
Important:
| • | Incorrect switch adjustment may cause the cruise control system
to function improperly. For additional information about switch replacement,
refer to
Stop Lamp Switch Adjustment
in Hydraulic Brakes. |
| • | Do not depress the brake pedal (3) during the adjustment
procedure. |
- Adjust the release switch (5) assembly and the stoplamp switch (4)
assembly after you assemble the brake booster pushrod to the brake pedal
assembly. Adjust the following components together:
| • | The cruise control release switch (5) |
| • | The stoplamp switch (4) |
- Insert the cruise release switch into the retainer until the switch
fully seats against the brake pedal arm.
- Twist the switch in order to lock the switch into position.
- Measure the distance from the end of the barrel on the cruise
release switch to the pedal arm. Ensure that the clearance is 1.5-1.7 mm
(1/16 in). Repeat the previous 2 steps if the measurement is
incorrect.
- Measure the travel at the centerline of the brake pedal assembly
pad. The following contacts must be closed at 3.5-12.5 mm (1/8-1/2 in)
of brake pedal assembly travel:
| • | The release switch assembly (5) |
| • | The stoplamp switch assembly (4) |
| • | The nominal actuation of the stoplamp switch assembly (4) is
approximately 4.5 mm (3/16 in). |
