Clutch pedal (Honda Civic 5)

Adjustment

Note:

• Check the clutch switch;
• The clutch is self-adjusting to compensate for wear.

Warning: If there is no clearance between the clutch master cylinder piston and the pushrod, the release bearing will be seated against the diaphragm spring and this may cause clutch slippage or other problems.

1. Loosen lock nut A and remove the clutch switch unit (or adjusting bolt) so that it does not touch the clutch pedal.

2. Loosen locknut B and move the push rod inward or outward to achieve the nominal stroke A and height C in the clutch pedal.

3. Tighten lock nut B.

4. Screw in the clutch switch (or adjusting bolt) inward until it contacts the clutch pedal.

5. Turn the clutch switch (or adjusting bolt) another 3/4 turn or a full turn.
