ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE PEDAL GROUP
ACCELERATOR PEDAL INSTALLATION – ELECTRIC VEHICLES
1. If the accelerator pivot rod supports were replaced, position the supports (21) on the vehicle frame and
install the four bolts (22), flat washers (16), and lock nuts (15) (Figure 5-8, Page 5-10). Finger-tighten
nuts at this time.
2. Insert the lower end of the accelerator pedal (1) through the floorboard and install the accelerator pivot
rod (6) through the uppermost hole in the pedal.
3. Install plastic spacer (20) on pivot rod (6).
4. Insert the pivot rod through the pivot rod supports (21) on the vehicle frame.
5. Tighten the four bolts (22) attaching the pivot rod supports to the frame to 75 in-lb (8.5 N·m) (Figure 5-8,
Page 5-10).
6. Insert the bolt (4), two washers (5), and a new lock nut (7) through the lower hole in the pedal and through
the pivot rod. Finger-tighten lock nut at this time.
7. Install the bolt (8) through the pivot rod (6) and spring retainer (11). Secure these parts with the nut (10)
(Figure 5-8, Page 5-10). Tighten the nut to 75 in-lb (8.5 N·m).
8. Press the brake pedal slightly, and with the park brake ratchet oriented so that the tip of the ratchet is
pointed toward the rear of the vehicle, slide the ratchet onto the pivot rod (do not slide the ratchet onto
the pivot rod splines). Release the brake pedal and allow the ratchet to rotate until its tip is pointed down-
ward (Figure 5-7, Page 5-8). The ratchet should now rotate freely on the rod.
9. Rotate the ratchet clockwise until it touches the park brake pawl, then slide the ratchet onto the splines
of the pivot rod (it may be necessary to push the pivot rod toward the driver side of the vehicle to make
the splines accessible). The ratchet may have to be rotated counterclockwise slightly to align the splines.
10. Move the pivot rod back toward the driver side of the vehicle and line up the match marks on the pivot
rod and ratchet. Rotate the pivot rod back and forth slightly to align the splines and slide the ratchet onto
the splines.
11. Install lock nut (23) on pivot rod (Figure 5-8, Page 5-10). Tighten to 18 ft-lb (24.5 N·m).
12. Install the MCOR (2) and drive bar (3) as instructed. See MCOR Removal, Section 12, in the Power-
Drive Maintenance and Service Supplement.
13. Adjust the pedal group. See Pedal Group Adjustment – Electric Vehicles on page 5-16.
PEDAL GROUP ADJUSTMENT – GASOLINE VEHICLES
See General Warning, Section 1, Page 1-1.
1. Disconnect battery and spark plug wire(s). See Disconnecting The Battery – Gasoline Vehicles on
page 1-3.
2. Adjust brake pedal height.
2.1. Chock wheels and release park brake. Lift rear of vehicle and place jack stands under the axle
tubes to support the vehicle.
2.2. To provide slack in the brake cables, loosen the equalizer retaining nuts (2 and 3) on the equalizer
rod (1) (Figure 5-9, Page 5-12).
2.3. Four-wheel brake vehicles only: Loosen the front brake equalizer rod (Figure 5-10, Page 5-12).
