Cable TENSIONER: Unlocking
- Be sure the rear parking brake cables are both properly installed in the equalizer.
- Keeping your hands clear of the automatic adjuster sector and pawl area, firmly grasp the parking brake lever pin punch (or locking pin if a new mechanism has been installed), then quickly remove it from the parking brake lever mechanism. This will allow the park brake lever mechanism to automatically adjust the parking brake cables.
- Cycle the parking brake lever once to position the parking brake cables, then return the parking brake lever to its released position.
- Check the rear wheels of the vehicle. They should rotate freely without dragging with the lever in its released position.
- Fully apply the parking brake lever.
- Install the center console and its mounting screws.
- Remove the blocks from the tire and wheels.
NOTE:
The parking brake lever can only be in the released position when releasing the automatic adjuster locking pin or pin punch.
