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

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.
