Brake Buddy Honda Fit

I have a brake buddy select 3 in a 2013 Honda Fit.

Two issues:
The floor area of the drivers seat is almost too small for the Brake Buddy. I’ve had the handle wedged under the steering column but this probably interferes with steering and it has caused the handle to pop off the unit.

Also - when I hit the auto start button sometimes it just holds the brake on with the brake bleed light on. If I retry a few times it cycles five times like normal. I’ll call brake buddy support but wanted to ask here:

1) best fit for a Honda Fit?
2) any way to adjust the brake arm to be shorter? (Other than threading the brake pedal clamp all the way down)
3) any idea why it would go to brake bleed mode during auto start?

Thanks!

Your BrakeBuddy obviously doesn't fit and you are right, things are tight in a Fit.

You should have bought a RVi unit. It sits flat on the floor and fits a Fit perfectly.
