Parking Brake
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Lincoln MKX and 2010 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The parking brake and actuation system consists of the following components:
- Parking brake cables
- Parking brake control
- Parking brake shoes
- Red brake warning indicator
The parking brake system is a foot-operated/cable-actuated system that applies a drum-in-hat assembly within each rear brake disc. A red brake warning indicator is located in the instrument cluster and will illuminate when the system is actuated to alert the driver that the parking brakes are applied.
