I thank you all for your help. I have purchased new pedals today. I am in the trades and I have seen countless new and used products TEST OK but FAIL under duress- IE- THEY DONT WORK IN THE FIELD WHERE IT COUNTS. I know you know what im talking about. I tried to cheap out and got caught, so now Ive done what I should have done in the first place- bought new. CH will be pleased to know I bought CH pro pedals. My only concern is my products work. You all have given of your time and expertise and I appreciate it!
