6. Install rear drums (2) and wheels (1).
Parking Brake Adjustment
NOTE: All brakes are self adjusting. Brakes are adjusted
by repeated stepping on the brake pedal. (After stepping
on the pedal and releasing it, the rear auto±adjuster, in the
rear brake, produces a clicking sound. The same
operation should be repeated until the sound
disappears.)
Take the following steps after overhauling the rear brake
assembly.
1. Move the parking brake lever to its fully released
position.
2. Parking cable must be loosened sufficiently. (Loosen
the adjust nut and the lock nut.).
3. Repeat stepping on the brake pedal firmly, and
releasing it until the clicking sound can no longer be
heard.
If the difference between the brake drum inside
diameter and diameter of the brake shoes is adjusted
to be 0.5 mm, the number of times for depressing the
brake pedal can be reduced.
4. Remove the drum. Measure the brake drum inside
diameter and diameter of the brake shoes.
Shoe clearance: 0.25 mm to 0.40 mm
(0.0098 in to 0.0157 in)
If incorrect, check the brake auto±adjusting system.
5. Rotate the adjust nut of hand brake lever until all slack
disappears from the cable. Set the adjust nut.
6. Applying about 30 kg (66 lb) of force, pull the parking
brake lever to its fully set position three or four times.
7. If the parking brake is properly adjusted, the travel
between the fully disengaged position and the fully
engaged position will be 6 notches.
If the traveling range is not within these limits, repeat
steps 1 through 5 again .
After adjusting has been done, check to see if the rear
wheel rotates smoothly without drag when turned by
hand.

6VE1 3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0300 Engine Misfire Detected
Circuit Description
Misfire is monitored as a function of the combustion
quality (CQ) signals generated from the ION Sensing
Module. Combustion signals represent the degree of
combustion in each cylinder. Misfire is detected when the
combustion signal is below a predetermined value.
This DTC P0300 will determine if a multiple cylinder
misfire is occurring by monitoring the Combustion
Quality.
Conditions for Setting the DTC

None of the following DTCs occur: TP sensor, MAF
sensor, VSS, ECT sensor.

The engine speed is between 600 and 6250 RPM.

The system voltage is between 11 and 16 volts.

The engine temperature sensor (ECT) indicates an
engine temperature between ±7
C (20
F) and 110
C
(230
F).

Throttle angle is steady and throttle changes less than
2% per 125 milliseconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The PCM will ON the MIL after second trip with
detected the fault.

If the misfire is severe enough to cause possible
catalyst damage, the PCM will flash the MIL for as long
as the misfire remains at catalyst damaging levels.

The PCM will disable the TCC operation.

The PCM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Freeze Frame and in the
Failure Records data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

The PCM will turn the MIL ªOFFº on the third
consecutive trip cycle in which the diagnostic has been
run and the fault condition is no longer present.

A history DTC P0300 will clear after 40 consecutive
warm-up cycles occur without a fault.

DTC P0300 can be cleared by using the Tech 2 ªClear
Infoº function or by disconnecting the PCM battery
feed.
Diagnostic Aids
The Tech 2 display ªMisfire Cur. #1 through #6º can be
useful to determine whether the misfire is isolated to a
single cylinder.
Damaged or faulty ignition coil ± Check for cracks or
other damage.

Substitute a known good coil ± Swap the ignition coils
and retest. If the misfire follows the coil, replace the
ignition coil.
If the misfire is random, check for the following conditions:

System grounds ± Ensure all connections are clean
and properly tightened.

MAF ± A mass air flow (MAF) sensor output that
causes the PCM to sense a lower than normal air flow
will cause a lean condition.

Air induction system ± Air leaks into the induction
system which bypass the MAF sensor will cause a lean
condition. Check for disconnected or damaged
vacuum hoses, incorrectly installed or faulty PCV
valve, or for vacuum leaks at the throttle body, EGR
valve, and intake manifold mounting surfaces.

Fuel pressure ± Perform a fuel system pressure test.
A faulty fuel pump, plugged filter, or faulty fuel system
pressure regulator will contribute to a lean condition.

Injector(s) ± Perform an injector coil/balance test to
locate faulty injector(s) contributing to a lean or
flooding condition. In addition to the above test, check
the condition of the injector O-rings.

EGR ± Check for a leaking valve, adapter, or feed pipes
which will contribute to a lean condition or excessive
EGR flow.

Fuel quality ± Using fuel with the wrong octane rating
for the vehicle may cause driveability problems.
Although alcohol-enhanced fuels may raise the octane
rating, the fuel's ability to turn into vapor in cold
temperatures deteriorates. This may affect the cold
driveability of the engine. The Reid Vapor Pressure of
the fuel can also create problems in the fuel system,
especially during the spring and fall when changes by
the refineries may not coincide with changes in the
weather.

Vehicle marshalling ± The transportation of new
vehicles from the assembly plant to the dealership can
involve as many as 60 key cycles within 2 to 3 miles of
driving. This type of operation contributes to the fuel
fouling of the spark plugs and will turn on the MIL with
a P0300 Misfire DTC.
Reviewing the Failure Records vehicle mileage since the
diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often
the condition that caused the DTC to be set occurs. This
may assist in diagnosing the condition.

6VE1 3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
Diagnostic Aids
Check for the following conditions:

Poor connection at PCM ± Inspect harness connectors
for backed-out terminals, improper mating, broken
locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and
poor terminal-to-wire connection.

Damaged harness ± Inspect the wiring harness for
damage. If the harness appears to be OK, observe the
display on the Tech 2 while moving connectors and
wiring harnesses related to the sensor. A change in the
display will indicate the location of the fault.
Reviewing the Failure Records vehicle mileage since the
diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often
the condition that caused the DTC to be set occurs. This
may assist in diagnosing the condition.
Test Description
Number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the
Diagnostic Chart.
7. Difficulty completing the DTC P0430 ªStatus This
Ignº, test may be encountered in areas where test
conditions cannot be maintained easily, especially in
urban areas. To minimize the amount of driving
required to complete the DTC P0430 ªStatus This
Ignº, test, use the following procedure:

Allow the engine to warm up completely.

With the vehicle in ªParkº, monitor mass air flow on
the Tech 2 and hold part throttle to maintain a
reading of over 12 g/second for at least 2 minutes.
This will achieve the ªwarm catalystº required for
running the test.

Operate the vehicle in second or third gear to remain
in the DTC P0430 test conditions described in
ªConditions for Setting the DTCº as much as
possible. If you must stop the vehicle, maintain the
ªwarm catalystº criteria as follows:
± Place the vehicle in ªParkº or ªNeutralº,
± Hold part throttle to maintain a mass air flow
reading of over 15 g/second for the duration of the
stop.
The ªTWC Monitor Test Counterº displayed on the Tech 2
may be used to monitor the progress of the TWC
diagnostic. To complete the TWC diagnostic with a good
catalyst, the counter must be allowed to increment to 49
samples and roll over to 0 at least twice.
