Lost clutch on start up. All mechanicals are good/verified. Thought it might be safety switch which is OK, in the process of looking found the pedal assembly itself is loose. Appears that on end has become unattached. Looks miserably tight in there. Where do I start? Anyone out there have any experience with remove & replace the clutch pedal assembly? HELP

Thanks for the response. But it is definitely the pedal assembly, loosened on the left hand side. Looking for remove & replace advice for the pedal assembly.

That clutch pedal comes out pretty easy.

1 remove the clutch master cylinder rod from the pedal.
2 Depress the tabs on the sides and the pedal should come out.

Tabs on the sides? Do you have a diagram? A picture? Why do I seem to think that the whole dash & steering column needs to be moved out of the way? If I am wrong , please help lest I waste a lot of energy & time. Thank you greatly, in advance.

The assembly, which includes the brake pedal, is spring loaded. ABS plastic spacers and bushings hold it all together in the assembly housing. Only access is through the dash & column. Huge and nerve racking job for a backyard guy like me. Sent it to a seasoned vet, still a two day job. A good GM parts counter guy can print out the diagram with your VIN#. I am good now. Thanks for being Car Junkies!

Book time is only 1 hour to replace the clutch pedal shaft and bushings. You shouldn't have to remove the whole dash for that.

The clutch pedal rod, springs, and such act just like a toilet paper holder. You press in the sides to remove and install it. The pivot bushing is probably broken.

Done and over. I was charged $250 to pull apart the front dash & lower the steering column, remove pedal assembly, and rebuild the spring, bushings & guides. I witnessed most of this job, especially the rebuilding of the pedal assembly, and seemed like pulling the pedal assembly apart was not easy. One spring and a couple plastic pieces were mashed and ruined.
I always tell friends that it is important to have a relationship with a competent mechanic based on fairness and trust. Satisfaction comes with some give and take by both parties.
Nevertheless, I am grateful for both a local mechanic that rarely, if ever, lets me down. AND, a website community that is highly knowledgeable, and quite dependable..........always there.
I am happy. Now on to the next job.............and there will be one. LOU

Thread is getting old sport. Copy the dang pic/diagram above and take it with you to a GMC dealer - they have better look ups if they know what you are after.
Thread closed as this isn't your thread to begin with,
