4. Measure the dimension B in the figure (distance from the pedal pad surface to the dash panel pad surface).
5. Make sure that the total of the dimensions A and B measured in Steps 3 and 4 (brake pedal height) is within the standard value.Standard value (A+B): 221.8 - 227.8 mm (8.7 - 9.0 inch)
7. After checking the brake pedal height, install the stoplight switch in the following procedure:(1) Insert the stoplight switch into the key hole on the plate.
(2) Insert the stoplight switch until it touches the pedal stopper so as not to push the brake pedal down.
(3) Lock the stoplight switch body by twisting it clockwise.
(4) Check that the clearance between the stoplight switch and the pedal stopper is within the standard value.Standard value (D): 0.5 - 1.5 mm (0.02 - 0.06 inch)
