Clutch Pedal Goes To Floor Won T Return

If the pedal stays on the floor then the slave cylinder may have an internal leak if there is no external leakage.

Clutch pedal goes to floor won t return.

The most common seems to be external seal leakage. Grab a pry bar and push the slave cylinder pin back into its rest position the clutch pedal should return to its rest position as well. Clutch pedals that go from the rest position to full engagement but stay on the floor and don t spring back up. I m driving along and my clutch is just fine i press down to shift gears and it just goes to the floor and stays.

The cable and the hydraulic link provide the auto return so that after you press the pedal it comes back to its proper position and the clutch re engages. Clutch pedal goes to the floor and doesn t return. On another site someone said check if clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder is bad. Push down on the clutch pedal and see if will return.

It won t come out of gear so i just brake. The master or slave cylinder can fail due to an internal or external seal leak. On a manual or stick shift car the clutch is what allows you to change gear. It is connected to a pedal on the floor by either a cable or a hydraulic link.
