PARKING BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
When the park brake is set and the park brake indicator
is illuminated, motor speed is limited. If the accelerator is
applied, this limiting feature prevents operation, which
protects the park brake pads from excessive wear.
NOTE
This feature will not operate properly if the park brake
connector or switch (under the hood) malfunctions or
becomes disconnected, or if the switch has moved.
Refer to Chapter 8 (Electrical) for diagnostics.
1. Pull back on the park brake lever.
2. After 2 to 3 clicks the “BRAKE” light should illuminate
on the indicator panel and the wheels of the vehicle
should not rotate when turning by hand. After 8 full
clicks of lever travel, the vehicle should not roll while
parked.
3. If adjustment is required, return lever to the forward
position to release the brake. Adjust cable position in
the mounting bracket
q
on the transaxle as
described in Steps 4-6.
