Inspection

Clutch Pedal Inspection
  1. Measure the clutch pedal height (from the front surface of the pedal pad to the floor) and the clutch pedal shaft play (measured at the front surface of the pedal pad). Standard value: Stroke (A): 150 ± 3 mm (5.9055 ± 0.118 in). Free play (B): 6 ~ 13 mm (0.2362 ~ 0.5118 in). Height (C): 167 mm (6.5748 in)
  2. Disconnect the 2P connector from the ignition switch.
  3. Remove the ignition switch. (If you can install a tester with a fixed switch, this step can be skipped.)
  4. Check the continuity between the terminals. (See the table below)
    • If there is a difference between the inspected values and the table above, replace the ignition switch with a new one.

Removal

Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint. If brake fluid gets on the paint, wash it off immediately with water.
  1. Remove the brake fluid from the clutch master cylinder reservoir using a syringe.
  2. Disconnect the clutch tube (B) and the reservoir hose (A) from the clutch master cylinder.
  3. Remove the lower instrument panel cover. (Refer to "Interior (Crash Pad)" in Group BD.)
  4. Disconnect the ignition switch connector (B) and the clutch switch (A).
  5. Remove the mounting nut (C-3EA) and bolts (D-1EA) of the clutch pedal assembly.

    Tightening torque: 16.7 ~ 26 N·m

  6. Remove the clutch pedal and master cylinder assembly together.

Installation

  1. Installation is the reverse of removal.
    • After refilling with brake fluid, perform the air bleeding procedure for the clutch release cylinder. (Refer to "Clutch Release Cylinder" in Group CH.)
