Park Brake Cables
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Pontiac Vibe. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The twisted strand park brake cables are covered by a plastic material that allows the cables to slide freely.
The front cable is secured to the lever by two nuts. The lower nut controls the adjustment of the park brake. The upper nut locks the lower nut in place.
The front cable is connected to the two rear cables by an equalizer. The equalizer ensures that the braking tension is applied to both brakes at the same time, and with the same amount of pressure.
