Default Adjustable pedal problem.

fter installing my body lift, i noticed that my brake pedal was hitting my steering linkage, so i try to adjust the pedals, the gas moves, but the brake pedal does not, so i know it's not the switch and cant be a relay or fuse. havent checked the motor yet, how would 1 go about doing that? anyone experience this? thanks.

That sucks, have someone operate the pedals while you're under there to check their movement. I've got mine adjusted all the way to the boards. I can't believe I put up without having them for as long as I did on my last truck!

DSG , I noticed the crappy driving position in a friend's 10th gen truck and noticed he didn't have the adjustable petals. Not having them can really suck for us taller guys! Anyways, it reminded me of this thread. Did you ever get it figured out?

I'm in late on this thread, but yes I have the same issue with my adj.pedels. The gas moves up and back freely but the brake does not, it moves a little bit the you can hear it grinding like its jammed. If you figure it out post it up. I haven't bothered to try and fix mine because it in a good spot for me, but it would be nice to have it work correctly.

I dont think i fixed it, but i got it where i wanted it and just left it alone. I noticed that when the gas moved, the brake pedal would jolt like it wanted to move, so i hit the button and at that instant, i kinda forced the brake pedal to move and it did, then stopped, so i repeated the step and just continued to force it to the position that i needed it. As far as fixing it entirely, i would say a new motor because i could def. hear grinding.
