2004 Ford F-150 Heritage Brake Pedal Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the adjustable brake pedal assembly on 2004 Ford F-150 Heritage?

  A: The first step toward adjustable brake pedal assembly service includes positioning both pedals at the same spot whether they are fully forward or fully rearward. Service the adjustable brake pedal assembly by first disconnecting the battery ground cable together with the removal of instrument panel opening cover then steering column support bracket nuts. The next task involves removing the stoplight switch hairpin clip which enables users to detach the stoplight switch and booster push rod assembled with bushing from the brake pedal pin. To disconnect the brake pedal from the accelerator pedal as well as the brake pedal motor electrical connector and transmission shift cable from the steering column shift lever start by pulling the cable retainer. First detach the bracket sound insulator from the bulkhead before removing all nuts and bolts from the brake pedal and bracket to extract both components. When installing the bulkhead sound insulator ensure it remains outside the brake pedal-bracket and bulkhead zone before you position the brake pedal-bracket for bolt and nut installation. Following bulkhead sound insulator reinstallation you must connect the transmission shift cable to the steering column shift lever and then reconnect the brake pedal motor electrical connector. The brake pedal-to-accelerator pedal cable needs installation at the accelerator pedal with both pedals maintaining their current position. Align the accelerator pedal through brake pedal motor operation before removing the brake pedal-to-accelerator pedal cable. The brake pedal pin accepts the stoplight switch, booster push rod and bushing before attaching the stoplight switch hairpin clip while replacing the steering column support bracket and instrument panel opening cover.
