ABSTRACT:
A control pedal, supported rotatably on a shaft located in the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, is biased by a spring toward a free state position against a stop and is biased in the opposite rotary direction by a spring to assist the vehicle operator's effort in depressing the pedal. The spring, having a U-shaped cross section, includes outwardly extending legs that seat within recesses formed at one lateral side on the clutch pedal and at the opposite lateral side near a dash panel.
