Parking Brake

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Ford Thunderbird. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Check the parking brake by pulling up on the parking brake control. The parking brake must hold the vehicle on an incline, set by pulling up on the parking brake control before it reaches full travel. If not as specified, check the parking brake system for correct rear brake adjustment, cable operation and parking brake control operation.

If parking brake does not apply or will not release, check parking brake cable and control for binding. Repair as necessary.
