Thats the little silver tab?

I took the pedal off, and pressed the pedal and watched the tab go up then back down, so I do not think thats sticking.

I had the same problem on my 97, if you don't here it click when it is released than you may need to adjust it.

By "little silver tab", do you mean this?

Make sure you can hear it actually "click", as it's a Microswitch.

Any evidence of dust build-up in there?

Brake cleaner would have been a better product, as PB will leave an oily residue that will collect dust and cause the problem to return sooner.

At least you'll know what to do when it does.
