Why Can't the Brake Pedal Be Depressed When Starting the Car?
1 Answers
The reasons why the brake pedal can't be depressed when starting the car are: 1. The brake pedal is faulty, or the brake booster system has malfunctioned. Simply replace the faulty brake pedal or the brake booster pump. 2. It may be that the brake light is broken. When the brake pedal is depressed and the brake light doesn't illuminate, the computer will determine that the driver hasn't pressed the brake pedal, thus preventing the engine from starting. In this case, just replace the brake light bulb or the brake light switch. Brake lights are prone to failure but play a crucial role. Typically, cars are equipped with two brake lights, one on each side, and some also have a high-mounted brake light on the rear windshield.
