With Memory Feature

Adjustable brake and accelerator pedals are available as an optional feature on this vehicle. The brake pedal position can be changed in phase with the accelerator pedal to increase driver comfort. Two different adjustable pedal systems are available; one that is connected to the memory feature option and one that is not connected to the memory feature option.

Adjustable brake pedals with memory feature consist of the following components:

The pedals are adjusted through the use of a rocker switch mounted on the instrument panel, the memory SET switch mounted on the seat trim panel or the door trim panel or the RKE transmitter. When the switch is pressed or the transmitter is activated, a voltage signal is sent to the DSM. The DSM then sends voltage to the adjustable pedal motor which spins a cable that is attached to the adjustable brake pedal. As the cable spins, the pedals move either forward (away from the driver) or rearward (toward the driver) depending on how the switch is pressed and/or current pedal position.
