Linelock problem

Anyone ever had problems with their linelocks? Mine just stopped working about half way through the last track day. I didn't figure this out till a week ago though. The only thing I can think it might be is the solenoid. I have rebleed the brakes and checked the wiring. I can hear the solenoid click but its not holding the pressure?

What brand of line-lock is it? I've had my Hurst line lock on for a few years and I've had no issues with it yet.

. . . knock on wood.

Yea, knock on wood. That alone would have jinxed me.

I agree. If it's clicking and the lines are not kinked/damaged, then it has to be the internals of the solenoid.

I had to rebuild one of my Linelocks about a year ago. Nothing to it really...I took it apart and cleaned it out really well and reassembled it and it has been working fine ever since.
