Re: Brake pedal return spring?
Did you check to make sure nothing is on a bind?

Everything works well except the pedal does not return. Use your foot to bring it back and everything is good.

Re: Brake pedal return spring?
When this happened to me it was because I over-tightened the booster rod at the pedal. I loosened it up a little and the pedal returned with no issues.

I may have done the same. I’ll check that when I get home. Be an easy fix if that’s all it was!

For the win! I loosed the bolt slightly and now it works properly. Easy enough fix. Thanks for the help. Guess I just assumed it needed to be tight being a brake part. Lol
