My new vette GS has a clicking sound when I press the brake pedal. It sounds like a relay. Does anyone know of this issue with there cars. thanks

ChevyDave

yea, its the brake relay in the passenger kick panel fuse box area. normal.

there is a topic if you hate the sound, how some have put deadening over the relay to help.

Thanks , it is annoying. Wonder what it looks like and what to put over it. Any info ?

ChevyDave

fyi... i havent looked up the part number so yours might not have the number 12193602 on it

a quick parts lookup came up with 7 possible for a 2012, no need to research much more you get the idea where to look and what it looks like. lol here is 7 , yours is bound to have one of them...

12193606; 12135034
15328865; 12193602
19116057; 19115080; 19116963

You must be near the same age as me. I graduated college in 69 . Almost got drafted but happly didn't pass the physical

Yes, I used black 'HushMat' (same as Dynamat), and can't even tell it's wrapped. Zero noise now. If you put your head near the glove box you can still hear it, but it's 90% less. For practical purposes, problem solved . And yes, wanted to do the same to the reverse solenoid, but it's under that cover with a bolt in the middle, and didn't want to mess with it.

I strongly suggest this very cheap 'mod', so passengers don't ask why your expensive sports car sounds that cheap .
