(3) Adjustment screw - Remove the three screws from the cover plate on the right-hand brake pedal switch in order to access adjustment screw (3).
- Place a
1.55 mm (0.062 inch) shim between the pedal stop and the right-hand brake pedal. - Loosen adjustment screw (3). Adjust adjustment plate (2) until "Deprssed" appears in the "Brake Pedal" row under the "Value" column in ET. Then, torque adjustment screw (3) to

- Place a
0.775 mm (0.031 inch) shim between the pedal stop and the right-hand brake pedal. - Verify, "Released" appears in the "Brake Pedal" row under the "Value" column in ET. If "Released" now appears, proceed to Step 12. If "Released" does not appear, repeat Step 6 through Step 10.
- Remove the shim from the pedal stop.
- If the cover plate was removed, replace the cover plate with the three screws.
