SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
BRAKE PEDAL INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMAN-
1.Measure the brake pedal height as illustrated. If the brake
pedal height is not within the standard value, adjust as
follows.
Standard value (A): 176-181 mm (6.9-7.1 in.)
(1) Disconnect the stop light switch connector, loosen the
lock nut, and move the stop light switch to a position
where it does not contact the brake pedal arm.
(2) Adjust the brake pedal height by turning the operating
rod with pliers (with the operating rod lock nut
loosened), until the correct brake pedal height is
obtained.
(3) After screwing in the stop light switch until it contactsthe brake pedal stopper (just before the brake pedal is
caused to move), return the stop light switch l/2
to 1
turn and secure by tightening the lock nut.
2.
(4) Connect the connector of the stop light switch.
(5) Check to be sure that the stop light is not illuminated
with the brake pedal unpressed.
Reference value
(B): 0.5-1.0 mm (.02-.04 in.)
With the engine stopped, depress the brake pedal two or
three times. After eliminating the vacuum in the power
brake booster, press the pedal down by hand, and confirm
that the amount of movement before resistance is met
(the free play) is within the standard value range.
Standard value
(C): 3-8 mm (.l-.3 in.)
If the free play is less than the standard value, confirm that
the clearance between the stop light switch and brake pedal is within the standard value.
If the free play exceeds the standard value, it is probably
due to excessive play between the clevis pin and brake
pedal arm. Check for excessive clearance and replace
faulty parts as required.

Start the engine, depress the brake pedal with approxi-

Standard value(D): 80 mm (3.1 in.) or more
If the clearance is less than the standard value, check for
air trapped in the brake line and for brake fluid leaks. If
necessary, check the brake system mechanism (excessive
shoe clearance due to faulty auto adjuster) and repair
faulty parts as required.

4. After adjusting the height of the brake pedal, inspect the shift lock device.
5. If there is any trouble in the functioning of the shift lock device, adjust the shift lock cable.
NOTE
Refer to GROUP 23 for details about inspection and
adjustment of the shift lock device.
BRAKE FLUID LEVEL SENSOR CHECKM35F6A6
(1) Connect a circuit tester to the brake fluid level sensor.
(2) Move the float from top to bottom and check for
continuity.
(3) The brake fluid level sensor is in good condition if there is
no continuity when the float surface is above “A”, and if
there is continuity when the float surface is below “A”.
BRAKE BOOSTER OPERATING INSPECTION MlKcAJ
For simple checking of brake booster operation, carry out the
following tests.
(1) Run the engine for one or two minutes, and then stop it.
(2) Step on the brake pedal several’ times with normal
pressure.
If the pedal depressed fully the first time but gradually
becomes higher when depressed succeeding times, the
booster is operating properly.
If the pedal height remains unchanged, the booster is
faulty.
(3) With the engine stopped, step on the brake pedal several
(4
If
times with the same foot pressure to make sure that the
pedal height will not change.
Then step on the brake pedal and start the engine.
If the pedal moves downward slightly, the booster is in
good condit’on. If there is no change, the booster is faulty.
.) With the engine running, step on the brake pedal and then
stop the engine.
Hold the pedal depressed for 30 seconds. If the pedal
height does not change, the booster is in good condition.
If the pedal rises, the booster is faulty.
the above three tests are okay, the booster performance
can be determined as gooa.
If one of the above three tests is not okay at last, the check
valve, vacuum hose, or booster will be faulty.

1. Remove the vacuum hose at the brake booster side.

BLEEDING M35FYAM
Because the master cylinder employed is the type without the
check valve, air should be bled from the master cylinder by
following the procedures described below (if there is no brake
fluid in the master cylinder).
(1) Disconnect the brake tube from the master cylinder.
(2) Two persons’ should conduct the air bleeding, one person
slowly depressing the brake pedal and holding the pedal
depressed.
(3) In this condition, the other person should use a finger to close the outlet part of the master cylinder, and then the
first person should release the brake pedal.
(4) Steps (2) and (3) should be repeated three or four times, and then the master cylinder should be filled with brake
fluid to the specified level.
I(]OTE
The air is completely bled from the master cylinder by
steps (1) to (4).
(5) Connect the brake tube to the master cylinder.
(6) Start the engine; then, in the sequence shown in the illustration, bleed the air from each wheel cylinder, delay
valve and hydraulic unit.
Specified brake fluid: Confoming to DOT3 or DOT4
Caution
1.Use the specified brake fluid. Avoid using a mixture
of the specified brake fluid and other fluid.
2. If brake fluid is exposed to the air, it will absorb moisture; as water is absorbed from the atmo-
sphere, the boiling point of the brake fluid will
decrease and the braking performance will be
seriously impaired. For this reason, use a hermeti-
cally sealed 1 dms (1.06 qt.) or 0.5 dms (0.52 qt.)
brake fluid container.
3. Firmly close the cap of the brake fluid container
after use.
4. For vehicles with the anti-lock braking system, be
sure to install a filter to the master cylinder
reservoir tank when supplying brake fluid.
NOTE
For FWD-vehicles with the anti-lock braking system, the
brake pedal will have a “heavier” feeling for air bleeding of
the rear brakes than for the front brakes, but this is the
result of the constriction of fluid pressure within the delay
valve, and is not a malfunction.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (A.B.S.) CHECK
(CHECKING BY THE A.B.S. WARNING LIGHT)
M35FOAK
By following the procedures described below, check whether
the system is good or not by checking the illumination and non-illumination of the A.B.S. warning light.
(1) Check to be sure that the A.B.S. warning light illuminates
when the ignition key is turned to the ON position, and
that it again illuminates two times during a short period of
time (approximately 0.5 second) after the engine is started, and that it then stops illumination.
(2) After checking that the A.B.S. warning light does not illuminate during a period of approximately 2 minutes
while the engine is left idling, test drive at a vehicle
speed of approximately 30 km/h (18.6 mph) or more for
about 30 seconds or longer and check that the A.B.S.
warning light does not illuminate during that time.
(3) If any abnormal condition is discovered during steps (1) and (2) above, check the system by following the anti-
skid brake system troubleshooting procedures.
Caution
Before checking the anti-lock braking system by the
A.B.S. warning light as described above, first check
the ordinary brake system that there are no problems
such as leakage of the brake fluid, incorrect connec-
tions of the brake tubes, etc.
WHEEL SPEED SENSOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE
CHECK
M3sFoAE
(1) Jack up the vehicle and release the parking brake.
(2) Disconnect the electronic control unit harness connector,
and measure the speed sensor output voltage at the
vehicle side harness connector.
(3) Rotate the wheel to be measured at a speed of about
one-
half to one rotation per second and while doing S
O
measure the speed sensor output voltage by using a
voltmeter or oscilloscope.
(4) If an oscilloscope is used, use the filter shown in the

FLAT BATTERY REMEDYM35FOAF
When booster cables are used to start the engine when the
battery is completely flat and then the vehicle is immediately
driven without waiting for the battery to recharge itself to
some extent, the engine may misfire, and driving might not be
possible. This happens because A.B.S. consumes a great
amount of current for its self-check function; the remedy is to
either allow the battery to recharge sufficiently, or to remove
the fuse for A.B.S. circuit, thus disabling A.B.S.
The A.B.S. warning light will illuminate when the main fusible
link (for A.B.S.) is removed.
After the battery has sufficiently charged, install the main
fusible link (for A.B.S.) and restart the engine; then check to be
sure the A.B.S. warning light is not illuminated.
