DEPICTION OF THE BRAKE PEDAL ANTI-RATTLE SPRING:
The brake pedal return spring will no longer be referred to by that name, as this nomenclature is misleading. The spring does not assist in returning the pedal to its rest position following the application of the brakes. The spring actually exerts downward pressure on the. pedal, reducing the possibility of vibration and rattle.
This part will now be called the "Brake Pedal Anti-Rattle Spring", to more accurately reflect its function.
This art gives a more precise depiction of the Brake Pedal Anti-Rattle Spring than does the parts book or the Service Manual.
