Ah, the foot crank, my worst nemesis. Useful, yet is a scoundrel, hidden in the dark. It knows I want it, so it leaves without a trail to follow, just for mere spite.
Okay, but more seriously I can’t find the recipe. Out of the skills that seem like they may be relevant, I have Mechanics 3, Devices 2, Fabrication 5. Presumably this would be enough, and in the past, at least, it was auto-learned. Do I now need to find a book or something?

Nothing changed since when your question was answered almost one year ago:

> As Junknown pointed out, they are no longer craftable, and as PALU suspected, you probably took off a broken (XX) pedal which only returns part(s)… As for installing them in a vehicle, they are called foot pedals, are located in the Internal category, require a foot crank, mechanics skill of 0, a tool with bolt turning of 2 and are installed onto any kind of frame (information accurate as of build version 0.E-10998). Also, there can only be one installed pedals per vehicle.

Okay, so they require foot crank, right? How do I get that? Am I misunderstanding something? When I search to install foot pedals it says I need a foot crank.

Foot cranks can be found (garages maybe, sometimes on the street), traded from NPCs or uninstalled from other vehicles (bikes, usually) as long as they are not broken (marked with `XX`).
They are no longer craftable.
