PEDAL STROKE

When parking brake pedal is operated with a force of 200 N (20.4 kg, 44.9 lb), make sure the stroke is
within the specified number of notches. (Check it by listening and counting the ratchet clicks.)
INSPECT COMPONENTS

Make sure the components are attached properly (check for looseness, backlash, etc.).

Check parking brake pedal assembly for bend, damage and cracks, and replace if necessary.

Check cable for wear and damage, and replace if necessary.

Check parking brake warning lamp switch for malfunction, and replace if necessary.
ADJUSTMENT

To perform adjustment operations, remove tire from the vehicle with power tool.
1. Insert a deep socket wrench to rotate adjusting nut and loosen cable sufficiently. Then, return pedal.
2. Using wheel nuts, fix disc to hub and prevent it from tilting.
3. Remove adjusting hole plug installed on disc. Using a flat- bladed screwdriver, turn adjuster in direction A as shown in the
figure until disc rotor is locked. After locking, turn adjuster in the
opposite direction by 5 or 6 notches.
4. Rotate disc rotor to make sure there is no drag. Install adjusting hole plug.
5. Adjust cable as follows:
a. Operate pedal 10 or more times with a force of 490 N (50 kg, 11 0 l b ) .
b. Rotate adjusting nut with deep socket to adjust pedal stroke. CAUTION:
Do not reuse adjusting nut after removing it.
c. When parking brake pedal is operated with a force of 200 N (20.4 kg, 44.9 lb), make sure the stroke is within the specified number of notches. (Check it by listening and counting the ratchet clicks.)
d. With pedal completely returned, make sure there is no drag on rear brake. Pedal stroke : 4
