Check and adjustment
Check and adjustment of brake pedal
1. Check the correctness of height of pedal
Distance from pedal to lower front apron: 152mm, Operating stroke
of pedal push bar is 1mm.
a. Disconnect the brake lamp switch wire connector; loose the
tightened nut; rotate the brake switch to the position not contacted
to limit block of brake pedal
b. Loose the lock nut of operating connecting rod; use the thinnose
pliers to rotate the operating connecting rod to adjust the height
of brake pedal to the standard value; lock the block nut tightenedly
when reach the standard value.
c. Rotate the brake lamp switch to contact with the limit block of
brake pedal; then rotate 1/2
1 round continuously; tighten the
block nut;
d. Connect the wire connector of brake lamp switch;
e. The brake lamp should not be light when the brake pedal is
released.
3. Check the free stroke of pedal
Free stroke of pedal: 4
6mm
In the status of engine is stop, step on the brake pedal for 2
3 times
after eliminate effect of the brake assist, push down the brake pedal
by hand to just with the resistance, then measure its displacement
(free stroke). It should be in accordance with the standard value.

10. Adjust the clearance between the brake drum and brake shoe.
Poke the adjusting hole plug on the brake drum, insert the screwdriver
into the clearance-adjusting hole; rotate the clearance-adjusting gear
to expand the brake shoe until the brake disc can not be rotated by
hand. Then rotate it for 3-5 teeth in anticlockwise, rotate the brake
disc by hand at the same time, it is proper that it can rotate freely
and without the contact between the abrasion and disc. It is allowable
that the non-running-in brake shoe has the slight abrasion sensing.
When adjust the clearance, the left and right wheel must be adjust at
the same, install the adjusting hole plug after the completion of
adjusting .

Antilock Braking System (ABS)
Cautions
1. It must not remove or install the electric elements and wire bunch plug when the ignition switch is in ON to avoid
the damage of ECU. It should turn off the ignition switch if needs disassembly.
2. Pay attention to do not knock or impact the ABS ECU during the maintenance and repair, for it will damage the
ABS ECU easily.
3. The wheel speed sensor and hydraulic unit (integrated with ECU) of BOSCH ABS8.0 can not be repaired, it should
be replaced in integral if damaged.
4. After the brake system is maintained, the brake pedal maybe soft. Discharge the air according to the normal brake
system.
5. It must use the brake fluid from original manufacturer; the brake fluid of different number cannot be used in mixed,
otherwise it will cause the failure of brake system. Select the tyre of original type as most as possible
Repair of Antilock Braking System (ABS)
1. It should process the failure diagnosis for the brake system before process the ABS failure diagnosis. It can
diagnose out the failure rapidly by using Table 1. In Table 1, the small number means the failure which occurs most
possibly. Check each element according to the sequence and maintain or replace it if necessary.
2. Check the following elements for normal operation before the diagnosis:
Brake fluid level and brake fluid quality
Pressure of tyre, size of tyre, shape and depth of tyre figure
Other brake component
These components will affect the brake effect of the ABS. Check the system sensor, connecting wire and connector for correct
installation, arrangement and connection. Ensure the completeness of fuse, repair or replace it if necessary.
3. Process the analysis and diagnosis according to the ABS advanced by owner. Use the diagnosis instrument (Annex
1) for final check and confirmation. It must process the run inspection after the competition of all ABS maintenance.
The test condition is shown as follows:
a. Confirm the tyre complies with the requirement, the tyre pressure is normal.
b. The brake system (including brake light ) is normal
c. The brake system is without leakage.
d. The position and installation of wheel speed sensor is correct.
e. All fuses are normal.
4. test method:
Run for 1 min at least when the vehicle speed is beyond 40Km/h, process a proper brake. Then read out the failure code to
ensure the ABS is without failure code.
