That's the one. The first thing to check is whether it is securely
mounted
and adjusted properly. Check that the button moves freely when the pedal
is
pressed. Then verify that the electrical connector on it is also clean
and
securely attached. If it still doesn't work reliably at that point then
replace it. It should be easy to replace.
