Parking brake cables

With the handbrake cable you can put the car on the handbrake. When you apply the parking brake, the cable will be under tension. Because the cable is under tension, a clamp is tightened. This clamp then ensures that the brake pads are pushed vigorously against the brake discs. In the case of a drum brake, the brake shoes will be pushed against the brake drum. The brake is now fixed and the car can no longer roll forwards or backwards. To release the car from the parking brake, press the button on the parking brake and move the lever back down.

Hand brake cable car broken

There are several reasons for the car's parking brake cable to break. For example, the cables can freeze or rust. The cable can also snap because the handbrake is applied too hard. When the parking brake cable no longer works properly, you will notice that you can no longer properly apply the parking brake to the car. It can also happen that you can no longer get the car off the handbrake.

If the handbrake cable no longer works properly, make sure to replace it in time. This ensures that the car cannot roll away and prevents damage. In addition, a properly working handbrake cable is a requirement to pass the APK inspection.
