| + | ====== Removing the Power Brake Booster Pedal Clip ====== | ||
| + | I own a 1996 Chevrolet C2500 pickup truck. There is a small clip on the brake pedal that holds the Brake Switch and the Power Brake Booster to the pin on the pedal. I recently had the pleasure of disconnecting that clip when I replaced my Power Brake Booster. The clip alone took me a good hour and a half to remove. I hope these pictures will help you remove it more quickly. | ||

| + | ===== A Tight Spot ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Most of the problem is in the fact that you have very little room to work. The steering column, dash supports, and electrical cables will all be in your way. I had trouble seeing the clip clearly, much less removing it. | ||

| + | ===== The Clip ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | The clip itself looked a bit confusing to me. In fact, I thought it had multiple parts associated with it. It turns out, however, that it's a single clip. | ||

| + | ===== Removal ===== | ||

| + | Ultimately, all you need is a long flat tip screwdriver. Insert it into a groove on the protruding edge of the clip, twist a little, then move the clip off of the pin. | ||
