3.2. Slowly depress the accelerator pedal fully to the floor and hold it in this position. With the acceler-
ator pedal fully depressed, the wiper switch arm brush should be positioned entirely on the last
E
fixed contact. It is acceptable for the wiper switch arm to come into contact with the wiper switch
housing provided there is no excessive pressure against the housing. To check wiper arm pres-
G
sure against the housing, keep the accelerator pedal fully depressed and disconnect the acceler-
ator rod from the wiper switch ball stud. Then try to reconnect it. If the accelerator pedal must be
released in order to reconnect the accelerator rod, then the wiper switch arm is exerting excessive
pressure against the housing - proceed to step 3.3. If the accelerator rod can be easily con-
nected, it is correctly adjusted - proceed to Accelerator Pedal Stop Adjustment.
3.3. If the accelerator rod is not adjusted correctly, disconnect it from the ball stud at the wiper switch
and manually rotate the bell crank until the wiper switch arm brush is positioned entirely on the
last fixed contact.
3.4. While holding the accelerator rod with pliers, loosen the jam nut and adjust the ball joint sleeve so
that it will fit onto the wiper switch ball stud, with approximately the same number of threads show-
ing at each end of the rod. Then tighten the jam nut against the sleeve.
3.5. Depress the accelerator pedal several times and then check to be sure that the wiper switch arm
brush is positioned entirely on the eighth fixed contact, without the wiper switch arm exerting
excessive pressure against the wiper switch housing.
3.6. Install the wiper switch cover.
4. ADJUST THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL STOP (See page 6-7 for electric vehicles).

ERWISE THE PARK BRAKE AND/OR WIPER SWITCH MAY NOT OPERATE PROPERLY.

4.2. Measure the distance from the floormat to the top of the accelerator pedal (Figure 6-8). The mea-
surement should be 6 inches (15.2 cm). If pedal distance from the floormat is not correct, adjust it
by turning the nuts (15) on the accelerator pedal stop (16) (Figure 6-5, Page 6-3) away from the
rubber stop to decrease distance, or turn the nuts toward the rubber bumper to increase distance.
