Clutch is dead. No idea!

my clutch is down on the floor and im not sure why. i was driving up a hill goin about 35 then i pushed the clutch in as im rolling up to a stop and it just goes to the floor.

the fluid reservoir is full
and the clutch pedal will stay up on its own

it hasnt been slipping at all or making any noises so im thinkin the pump.

any ideas??

Replace the slave cylinder and line while you are in the area as well.

SO it is still working properly? If it aint broke don't fix it.

IF you replace anything do all 3 items

Slave
master
rubber hose

make sure to bleed the hell out of it too. My hydraulics just went out and I still didn't have a clutch after bleeding it a couple times. Turns out air was hiding somewhere. Third times a charm

no it isnt working. when i push the pedal down it has no resistance and it stays down, but i can grab it and lift it up and it will stay up on its own. the clutch does not engage.
