TC40D hydrostatic pedals no resistance

ConCon · Jul 13, 2021

Pedals completely went out on TC40D. There was no warning. Does anyone have a schematic on how this functions or ideas?

Welcome to the forum. It could be as simple as a linkage becoming disconnected. Take a peek under the footplate and see if anything is dangling. If you have a 'rocker' pedal you'd only feel the resistance of the centering spring. If you can reach up and work the pedal by hand you might be able to see what moves and what doesn't down below. (Model-specific help will be along shortly.)
