1. Pull up the brake pedal and hold the pedal in this position.
2. Adjust the stop lamp switch (2).

Measurement
The clearance between the end of the thread and the brake pedal stopper (3) should be 1.5-2.0 mm (0.06-0.08 in).

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

3. Tighten the lock nut.

Tighten
Tighten the lock nut to 7.5 N·m (66.4 lb in).
