Kid Trax Bronco ESC Upgrade P.3

7/26/2022

 
So first up, we need to replace the accelerator pedal.  The new one is not a simple on/off switch, its a variable resistor, for full variable speed control.  So the original pedal has to go.
The original pedal is a pretty low profile and just snaps into a recess in the floor, whereas the new pedal is boxy, which makes installation easy, but also puts the pedal way higher

Im not a fan of this, so lets make some changes.
Here's the foot pedal all disassembled:

I have an idea.  Lets chop it up!

...and with just some minor trimming, it fits in the original space!

All back together and installed, looks like it came this way from the factory! 
Picture
The brake pedal i installed slightly to the left.  First though, we need to deal with the wire coming out of the bottom.  Cant have exposed wires in the interior, thats just asking for problems!
Picture
So the plan is to mount the brake pedal here.  Of note is the upper and lower mounting points have been removed:
Picture
And then modify the pedal assembly so the wires come out the back instead of the bottom:
Picture
Because.....in this spot, the wires will pass thru a hole in the floorpan, to be hidden in the wireway and protected by the track!
Picture
The finished product- nice and clean, with no wires exposed anywhere, inside or underneath:
