E break busted
Hi Folks
I think the e break cable got busted, I backed-up the car and forget to release the hand brake, do you know where can I buy the cable? I have not jack-up the car to take a look, but my guess the cable may be broke Thanks Tan |
Is there still tension on it?
|
Yes, I pulled the hand brake and tension still there,but the car still roll backward
Thanks Tan |
If you still have tension, then the cable isn't broke.
|
TC - You may need to replace the pads on the eBrake.
|
TC, do you have the differential/drive-shaft ebrake disk or the extra calipers on the rear disks? Either way, you probably just need to adjust them...
|
Kinda what I was thinking....some of these cars have shoes behind the rotors. You may have broken one/two.
|
Thanks for all the advice and info, I will need to jack up the car and inspect
will keep you posted Thanks Tan |
If the e-brake is mounted on the axle housing, you'll probably have to remove a wheel/tire, then pull the caliper/rotor off to get a good look.
|
I forget which direction to remove the knock-off for the rear wheel
Pls help Thanks Tan |
I believe they come off in the forward direction. Same direction as tire rotation as if you were moving forward.
|
tc,
For the Knock-offs. Just rememebr the drivers side is normal thread direction the passengers side is a reverse thread. So drivers side is counter-clockwise to loosen passsengers side is clockwise to loosen. I remember this by thinking my passengers are always a bit different as compared to me the driver?**) Mike |
All spf.........to remove hit the spinner toward the front....right side or left side no differance..............
|
Thanks a lot, this is easy to remember now
