Pedal height
1. Disconnect the brake switch connector, loosen the brake switch lock nut, and turn the brake switch so that it does not contact the brake pedal.
2. Turn back the mat and measure the pedal height from the center of the right side of the pedal.
3. Loosen the push rod lock nut and screw the push rod in or out with the tool until you get the standard pedal height from the floor, after adjustment, tighten the lock nut.
Note: Do not adjust the pedal height while the pushrod is depressed.
4. Screw in the Brake switch until its shaft is fully depressed (the threaded end contacts the pedal lever). Then back off the switch 1/4 turn to achieve a gap of 0.3 mm between the threaded end and the pedal. Tighten the lock nut firmly. Connect the brake switch connector.
Caution: Make sure the brake lights go out when the pedal is released.
5. Check the free play of the brake pedal as described below.
