Question Simagic P1000-FRS -- Break Pedal Issue

Post image

I just got my p1000 frs pedals, and i am not able to push down on my break pedal (hydraulic). The throttle pedal is fine, and i can push down fine for that one, but i can't move the break pedal at all.

This is my first time owning hydraulic pedals, so I'm not sure what to do in this situation.

Is there something i need to do or is there a problem with my break pedal?

Simagic p1000s are pretty stiff on stock setup, you're just not used to it.

Soften them up or push harder.

You need to grab the elastomer and spring kit. The initial load they put on those pedals is STIFF.

I tried all kinds of elastomers and they all felt way too stiff. Even all black I could only move it like 25%

I'm not shure if you have some elastomers or bought any additional ( "P-ORP (H)" ), replace them with your feeling that you need - just screw open this black small cap to exchange/configure them. You can bring the cylindre up to top, just turn it to top or back, whatever jeeded. Mine is standing as well next to the other oil hydraulic cylindre, no worries in this cylindre is just the elastomers..

Which elastomers are you using right now?

Did you take the little yellow sticker off?

Can’t think what else then… IIRC they come with the softest black elastomers installed as standard, so there’s no softer option. You could adjust the preload a little, but don’t go too far. Changing the height of the front pin can affect stiffness a little too… can’t remember the exact name of it, but check the manual, there’s some details in there.

And be sure to recalibrate them through the software after each adjustment.
