Hi there

I've just installed my new thick fat pads in my MPC 1000. Pad1 is nice and tight, but all the other pads are really loose and not sensitive. I've tried to install the pads several times, but they always ends up like this.

Any ideas about what I'm doing wrong?

Best regards,
Nikolaj de Haan

Did you wiggle the small "nipples" under the pad sheet to the holes properly (sorry if these aren't the correct terms lol :lol: )... looks like they're not pushed through. Make sure it sits tightly before putting the casing back.

Would probably help if you video the pad sheet w/o the casing.

take a tooth pic and poke the nipples a little bit into the little holes, that will help a bit, mines were the same way, there seems to be a little bit of air between the senor & and pad itself. I just switched back to the regular black pads i had, the fatties were to stiff for me. This sounds alittle bit weird :lol:
