I had the same problem....and I had to modify the Yamaha pedals.
The pedals a "double throw- single pole" and are in the ON position when
the
pedal is not pressed and the OFF position when released.
If you open the pedal, you will see three terminals on the back of the
switch itself.
The denter wire needs to stay where it is but the other (red I think...)
needs to be moved
to the other empty terminal instead of the terminal is is soldered to from
the factory.
If youy don't solder...maybe someone you know does and can help you.
The Yamaha pedal works great for me now that I modified it....it has a
very short throw.
