    brake return problem

     



    I have through floor pedals and the type of brake light switch that is just a lever mounted on the firewall that the pedal arm depresses when it is up.
    My brake pedal isn't returning all the way up (it's real close) so the brake lights just stay on.
    I was thinking of connecting a spring as shown in the picture here. (It is actually a very straight shot, the picture makes it look crooked).
    Do you guys think it would cause a problem with my clutch if I hooked it to the fork like this (maybe it would slightly hold the throw out against the diaphragm or something).
    I do have a good spring on the bottom hole of the fork pulling the fork in the opposite direction. (that return spring isn't in the picture)
