Caution

• The clearance between the brake switch

and the brake pedal is automatically
adjusted to the correct amount when the
brake switch connector is connected
after the brake switch has been properly
installed. If the brake switch is not
properly installed or the connector is
connected before installation, the
clearance may be incorrect, causing a brake light malfunction. Therefore, always verify that the
brake switch is properly installed before connecting the connector.

• Once the brake switch clearance has automatically been adjusted, it cannot be adjusted again.

Therefore, replace the switch with a new one when replacing the power brake unit or the pedal, or
performing any procedure that changes the pedal stroke.

22. Inspect shift lock operation. (See05-18-2 SHIFT-LOCK INSPECTION.)
