The pedal shows a nice "Y" crack near the hinge as well. I think both happened at the same time. Going EA express replacement route but also purchased an all metal $80 unit. I might try the 2-to-1 RCA and see if two pedals work once I get both of them. If not, I'm sticking with the all metal one. The base of the pedal is cracked on both sides, just in front of the "heel hole" near the hinge. They've responded by removing some tension from the spring, but I think that might be missing the point. If you play on carpet (as I do) the pedal is not supported by the four pads and I think that's the weakest part of the base of the pedal. I'll have both an EA "gen 2" pedal and a metal one from ValuePedal.com. Anyone tried a 2-to-1 small RCA to run two pedals yet?

I made some cushing blocks that don't let the petal bend nearly as much in the middle. this fixed the bending problem I was able to feel it bend befor i did this mod and new that would be a problem so I made the fix and it works great.

It seems like all of you have had better luck with this product but I was very displeased after paying the 20 dollars and seeing it break quite easily. Just warning all of you.

The web process is automated. It will ask you to fill out some forms, and ask some questions about trouble shooting, just say it doesn't work and it'll start the process. Enter your address and a credit card, and when you don't ship them back your broken one, they will charge you... Simple as that. Don't mess with phone support in this instance, just process the web request as you would if you did have a broken one, and they'll send it out and charge you 28 days later.
