ABSTRACT:
A brake adjustment monitoring system for displaying the status of the brake adjustment of each of the vehicle's brakes and warning the vehicle operator of a serious maladjustment. The inventive device includes a push rod movement measuring device coupled to each push rod for providing a first signal representative of the linear motion of the push rod to a first position and a second signal representative of the linear motion of the push rod to a second position, the first and second positions indicating successively greater linear motion of the push rod and thereby representing greater degrees of maladjustment of each brake, an alarm, a display and an electronic switch operably coupled to the push rod movement measuring device for providing the first and second signals to a microcontroller, the microcontroller for processing the first and second signals, for providing an alarm signal to the alarm and for providing a display signal to the display.
