ABSTRACT:
A brake control device (20) is disposed between a brake pedal (12) and a clutch pedal (10) to retain the brake pedal (12) in an applied position when the clutch pedal (10) is depressed and the vehicle is facing downhill on an incline and in reverse gear, so that the vehicle operator may remove his foot from the brake pedal (12). A control circuit (110) includes a backup light switch (114) and attitude switch (116) for operating a solenoid actuator (120) that applies a locking ball (28) of the brake control device (20). A brake control device (320) may be operated by a solenoid actuator (325) controlled by an electronic control unit (340) so that the brake pedal (12) is retained in an applied position whenever the vehicle is stationary and the clutch pedal (10) depressed.
