P38A Brake pedal

pete12345 · Feb 9, 2021

Got new problems now to contend with all new brakes been bled as per rave but have noticed when pushing pedal just down a small bit I hear a clicking weather ignition is on or off the noise is coming from down by the pedal area 1999 thor

Oh sorry nanocom saying no faults

kermit_rr · Feb 9, 2021

check nothing is catching the pedal action?

kermit_rr · Feb 9, 2021

and where is the clicking coming from?

tarphenry · Feb 9, 2021

The pedal has a double throw switch there, is it that you can hear?

pete12345 · Feb 9, 2021

Nothing catching what do you mean a double throw switch tarpenny

kermit_rr · Feb 9, 2021

my pedal has 2 switches, one for the brake lights and one for cruise with electrical and vacuum connections

pete12345 · Feb 9, 2021

I’ve one of the switches were faulty would the nanocom not throw a fault up at least put you in the right direction

my cruise one is broke and just dangles freely so the cruise ecu thinks the pedal is always pressed, doesnt cause any errors though but cruise wont work.
if i tape the switch up then everything cruise works perfectly and even switches off when I apply the brake so i'm not really sure what function it provides

Will try and narrow it down a bit tomorrow to wet and cold outside at the moment but it wasn’t making any noise before the bleeding process

When you say clicking.. So you mean more like the noise a ratchet spanner makes?

pete12345 · Feb 9, 2021

No more like the sound of a relay tripping but bit louder

tarphenry · Feb 9, 2021

The brakelight switch on my diesel has 2 contacts one on and one off.

What makes ypi think there is a fault? The switch is double throw as others have said

Don't recall mine making a noise. It must be loud to hear it in a diesel. I guess you could try the adjustment procedure.

Never heard it before and I would have thought I would have

Mine sometimes squeaks or is that just my knee

Unless you remove the switch and try it with your fingers, then while your in there you can look at the pedal mechanism with a torch and look for faults.

pete12345 · Feb 10, 2021

Just had a look the noise is right up under the pedal itself when it dries out a bit I will investigate I had it apart a few years ago because of a squeaking is the brake switch up under there somewhere then I was just curious as to why it’s happening now and not before the brake bleed
