Brake System -Brake System4-79Chapter 9 Brake SystemSection 1 Brake SystemI. Precaution 1. It's very important to keep the parts and area clean when repairing the brake system.
2. Care must be taken to replace each part properly as it could affect the performance of the brake system and
result in a driving hazard.
3. Do not let brake fluid remain on a painted surface when repairing any parts. Wash it off immediately.
4. If any work is done on the brake system or air in the brake pipelines is suspected, bleed the system of air.
5. Check the brake system for leakage after repairing the brake system.
6. Use specified brake fluid. Do not mix with other brand of brake fluid.II. Symptom table Use the table below to help you find the cause of the problem. The numbers indicate the priority of the likely
cause of the problem. Check each part in order. If necessary, replace these parts.Symptom
Low brake pedal or recoil
Brake StagnationSuspected Area
1 Brake system (fluid leaks)
2 Brake system (air in)
3 Piston Cup in Sub-pump (worn or damaged)
4 Rear brake shoe clearance (out of adjustment)
5 Master cylinder (faulty)
6 Booster push rod (out of adjustment)
7 Brake shoe or lining (oily)
8 Disc/Drum scratched
1. Brake pedal free stroke is too small
2. Parking brake lever stroke (out of adjustment)
3. Parking brake cable (sticking)
4. Rear brake shoe clearance (out of adjustment)
5. Brake pad or lining (cracked or distorted)
6. Wheel cylinder piston (stuck or frozen)
7. Return spring (faulty)
8. Vacuum booster (faulty)
9. Brake master cylinder (faulty)

Adjustment1. Check and adjust the height of brake pedal.
(1) Check the height of brake pedal.
Height from the floor: 124.3-134.3mm
(2) Adjust the height of brake pedal.
a. Remove the cover of the console.
b. Remove the coupler from the brake light switch.
c. Loosen the lock nut of the brake light switch, and remove
the brake light switch.
d.Loosen the lock nub of the U-connector.
e.Turn the pedal push bar to adjust the height of brake
pedal.
f. Tighten the lock nub of the push bar.
Torque: 26N.m
g. Install the brake light switch.
h. Insert the connector of the brake light switch.
i. Push the brake pedal (5-15ram), and turn the brake light
switch till it goes out. Lock the nut in this position.
j. After installation, step down the brake pedal (5-15mm),
and check the brake light is bright.
2. Check the pedal free stroke.
(1) Shut down the motor, and step on the brake pedal repeatedly
till the booster is not vacuum.
(2) Step down the pedal till resistance appears, and measure the
distance as shown in the figure.
Pedal free travel: 1-6mm
If the clearance does not meet the requirement, check the
clearance of the brake light switch. If the clearance is correct,
make diagnosis on the braking system.
Clearance: 0.5-2.4mm
3. Check the pedal reserved distance.
Loosen the parking brake extension rod.
When the motor is running, step down the pedal, and measure the
pedal reserved distance as shown in the figure.
When stepping on the pedal 490N, the reserved distance from the
asphalt floor is larger than 55mm
If the distance doesn't meet the requirement, make diagnosis on
the braking system.Brake System -Brake Pedal4-83Braking lamp switch
