LR3/Disco 3
GENERAL
Hydraulic brake actuation consists of the brake pedal, the brake master cylinder and the hydraulic pipes and hoses.
BRAKE PEDAL
NOTE:
The brake pedal is mounted in a bracket attached to the rear side of the engine bulkhead. On Left Hand Drive (LHD)
manual gearbox models, the brake pedal shares a bracket and pivot bolt with the clutch pedal. On Right Hand Drive
(RHD) manual gearbox models, the brake pedal has a separate bracket. A clevis pin and clip connect the brake pedal to
the push rod of the brake booster. A brake pedal buffer is installed on the in-vehicle cross beam to restrain rearward
movement of the brake pedal in an accident.
The stoplamp switch is mounted in the brake pedal bracket and operated by the brake pedal. For additional information,
