lo. INSTALLATION OF REAR SPEED SENSOR
(1) Temporarily install the speed sensor to the rear axle
spindle.
Caution Be careful when handling the pole piece at the tip of
the speed sensor and the toothed edge of the rotor so as not to damage them by striking against metal
objects.
(2) Note the following points when connecting the speed
sensor cable, and secure the cable by the clip.
0 Secure the clip so that the white-painted part
(shaded in the illustration) of the speed sensor
cable is not twisted.
0 Be sure that there is space (where shown in the illustration) so that the trailing arm and speed
sensor cable do not contact, and then secure by
the clip.
Caution
Because there is the
possibiliti of damage to the
cable during driving if the speed sensor cable and
the trailing arm come into contact, or if the speed sensor cable is twisted, care must be taken regard-
ing this point.
(3)
Inset-t a feeler gauge into the space between the
speed sensor’s pole piece and the rotor’s toothed
surface, and then tighten the speed sensors at the position where the clearance is the standard value.
Standard value:
0.3-0.9 mm (.012--035 in.)
NOTE
Check to be sure that there is no contact of the speed
sensor’s pole piece and the rotor’s toothed surface
when the rear hub assemlby is slowly rotated one
time.
If there is contact, it is probable that the rotor or the
rear hub is installed incorrectly, recheck installation.
10. INSTALLATION OF REAR SPEED SENSOR
Install the rear speed sensors as shown in the illustration.

5. INSTALLATION OF FRONT SPEED SENSOR BRACKET
Assemble the speed sensor and the speed sensor brack-
et.
NOTE
(1) The shape is different for the left and right speed sensor brackets. Each bracket has an identification
symbol, so be sure to note these symbols and install
correctly.
FR: Indicates that the bracket is for the front speed sensor.
R: Indicates that the bracket is for the right wheel.
L: Indicates that the bracket is for the left wheel.
(2) Check to be sure, when installing the speed sensor to the bracket, that the letters “FR” are visible.
4. INSTALLATION OF FRONT SPEED SENSOR (1) Temporarily install the speed sensor to the knuckle.
Caution
Be careful when handling the pole piece at the tip of
the speed sensor and the toothed edge of the rotor so as not to damage them by striking against other
parts.
Cross-section A-A
(2) Note the following points when connecting the speed sensor cable, and secure the cable by the clip.
0Secure the cable by the clip so that the whitepaint-
ed parts of the blackened parts (in the illustration)
of the speed sensor cable are within the range of
the angles indicated by cross-section A-A and cross-section B-B in the illustration.
0 Check to be sure that the white-painted part
(shaded in the illustration) of the speed sensor
cable is not twisted.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
PARKING BRAKE LEVER STROKE CHECKM~~FEAJ
1.Pull the parking brake lever with a force of approx. 200 N
(45 Ibs.), and count the number of notches.
Caution
The 200 N (45 Ibs.) force of the parking brake lever must
be strictly observed.
Standard value: 5-7 notches
2.If the parking brake lever stroke is not the standard value,
adjust as described below.
(1) Remove the carpet in the floor console.
(2) Loosen the adjusting nut to the end of the cable rod,
thus freeing the parking brake cable.
(3) With the engine idling, firmly depress the brake pedal
five or six times and confirm that the pedal stroke stops
changing.
NOTE
If the pedal stroke stops changing, it indicates that the
automatic adjusting mechanism has functioned proper- ly to adjust the clearance
b&ween’the pads and the
disc to the correct value.

(4) Check to be sure that the clearance between the
stopper and the parking brake lever at the caliper side is
as shown in the figure.
NOTE
If the clearance between the parking brake lever and
the stopper exceeds 2 mm
(078 in.), the probable
causes are brake cable sticking, improper wiring, or a
malfunction of the automatic adjuster (within the rear
brake caliper), so it is necessary to check the parking
brake cable and to disassemble and check the rear
brake caliper.
(5) Turn the adjusting nut to adjust the parking brake lever stroke to within the standard value range.
Caution
If the number of brake lever notches engaged is less
than the standard value, the cable has been pulled excessively, and failure of the automatic adjuster
mechanism will result. Be sure to adjust it to within
the standard value.
(6) After making the adjustment, check to be sure that there is no play between the adjusting nut and the pin.
Also check to be sure that the adjusting nut is securely held at the nut holder.
(7) After adjusting the lever stroke, jack up the rear of the
vehicle.
(8) With the parking brake lever in the released position,
turn the rear wheel to confirm that the rear brakes are
not dragging.
PARKING BRAKE SWITCH CHECK M3SFDAB
(1) Disconnect the connector of the parking brake switch, and connect an ohmmeter to the parking brake switch and the
switch installation bolt.
(2) The parking brake switch is good if there is continuity when the parking brake lever is pulled and there is no continuity
when it is returned.
