GENERAL DESCRIPTION
BR03E±06
1. Care must be taken to replace each part properly as it could affect the \
performance of the brakesystem and result in a driving hazard. Replace the parts with parts of the same part number or
equivalent.
2. It is very important to keep parts and the area clean when repairing the\
brake system.
3. If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communication system, refer to the precaution \
in the IN section.
DESCRIPTION
BR03F±03
The service brakes consist of a foot brake which changes rotational energy to therma\
l energy to stop the
vehicle while it is being driven and a parking brake to keep the vehicle from m\
oving while it is parked.
OPERATION
FOOT BRAKE
BR03G±06
When the brake pedal is depressed, a vacuum builds up in the booster whi\
ch amplifies the pedal force,
pressing on the piston in the master cylinder. The piston movement raises the hydraulic pressure in the
cylinder. This hydraulic pressure is then applied to each respective brake cylin\
der, and acts to press the
brake pads against the rotating discs. The resulting friction converts the ro\
tational energy to thermal ener-
gy, stopping the vehicle.

CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT
BR0EC±07
BRAKE PEDAL CHECK AND
ADJUSTMENT
1. CHECK THAT PEDAL HEIGHT IS CORRECT
Pedal height from asphalt sheet:150.4±160.4 mm (5.92±6.31 in.)
If the pedal height is incorrect, adjust it.
2. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST PEDAL HEIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the stop light switch.
(b) Loosen the stop light switch lock nut and remove the stop light switch.
(c) Loosen the push rod lock nut.
(d) Adjust the pedal height by turning the pedal push rod.
(e) Tighten the push rod lock nut.
Torque: 25 N Vm (260 kgf Vcm, 19 ft Vlbf)
(f) Install the stop light switch and turn it until it lightly contacts
the pedal stopper.
(g) Turn the stop light switch back one turn.
(h) Check the clearance (A) between stop light switch and pedal.
Clearance:
0.5±2.4 mm (0.02±0.09 in.)
(i) Tighten the stop light switch lock nut.
(j) Connect the connector to the stop light switch.
(k) Check that the stop lights come on when the brake pedal isdepressed, and go off when the brake pedal is released.
(l) After adjusting the pedal height, check the pedal free±play.
HINT: If clearance (A) between the stop light switch and the
brake pedal stopper has been adjusted correctly, the pedal
freeplay will meet the specifications.
3. CHECK THAT PEDAL FREEPLAY IS CORRECT, AS SHOWN
(a) Stop the engine and depress the brake pedal several times until there is no more vacuum left in the booster.
(b) Push in the pedal by hand until the beginning of the second point of resistance is felt, then measure the distance, as
shown.
Pedal freeplay:
1±6 mm (0.04±0.24 in.)
If incorrect, check the stop light switch clearance. And if the
clearance is OK, then troubleshoot the brake system.
HINT: The freeplay to the first point of resistance is due to the
play between the clevis and pin. It is 1±3 mm (0.04±0.12 in.)
on the pedal.
