Hi guys
Is there anyone that can explain why the brake spikes precisly on depression of the gas pedal. There must be a link between these two components somewhere in the circuitry. It cannot be a dirty brake pot as I've used a half can of contact cleaner in flushing it out also the gas pot. There is no delay between pressing the gas and the brake spike, it's instantanious. I can't see how the movement of the gas pedal's potentiometer can effect the the brake's potentiometer when brake potentiometer is in a fixed position. Has anyone experienced this problem.
 
That's weird. Recall someone suggesting to clean out the usb ports and connections to fix issues. Try that and see if it works.
 
Its not always to do with the pots being dirty. They are also quite loose in their mounted positions, with the wheel on gently twist the whole brake pot housing when you twist it 1way the brake will spike on so twist it in the opposite direction & secure it there. I jammed a bit of plastic between the pot housing & the pedal bracket & now my brake never sticks/spikes.
