Failed clutch pedal on a Fiesta
The clutch pedal on my Fiesta Zetec 2002 is not working. There is no pressure and it will not engage the gears. There is fluid in the reservoir - I have no idea what the problem is.

The pins that hold the foot pedals in place may fall out, leaving the driver unable to brake or declutch. Apparent clutch failure may be due to nothing more than a spring washer on the shaft behind the clutch pedal coming loose. This pushes on. Ford dealers usually have the part in stock and it's a quick fix.
