Brake pedal making a squeak when pressed

I have a 2009 Damon Daybreak 3575 on a W22 workhorse Chassis. When I apply the brakes there is a very annoying squeak that occurs. I have a trailer brake control that I thought might be causing the squeak, but I unplugged it and I am still getting the squeak. Anyone have this experience or have ideas on what might be causing this?

If it's a hanging pedal, spray lube on the pivot point for the pedal and linkage. Make sure the mechanism isn't scraping on something in it's travel that could cause the squeak.

I have sprayed silicone on the linkage and an inspection doesn't reveal anything scraping on the pedal. The squeak is still there. Anybody else have any ideas?

There is a zerk fitting on the brake bell crank linkage that needs to be lubed. Follow the linkage back from the master cylinder to where it goes thru the fire wall.

Thank you Mr. M&EM. The zerk and a little grease is all it took. Squeak gone.
