brake pedal free play
-
I recently adjusted the linkage of the "double safe brake system" on my Hornet. Ever since, the brake pedal doesn't come back up all the way. I have to pull it back for the last 2 inches when I use the brakes. Since I have one of those mechanical brake light switches (instead of using the usual hydraulic switch) the brake lights stay on until I pull it back.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to correct this?
Thanks,
Ed -
You may get a better response if you post this in the Hudson section.
Have you tried putting a a better spring on the brake pedal arm?
