Warren99 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 For a while my parking brake wouldn't catch on the ratchet, and therefore just didn't work. I've been tearing my interior apart recently and noticed suddenly its working again. Could the hood latch or kicker panel have possibly been pushing on something which was releasing the teeth?

jpnjake Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Not too sure what could cause it in your case, but if it happens again it could be something like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghetdjc320 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 If you have a hydraulic press or even a good air hammer, you can tighten down the main pin for the pedal until you get almost zero play (make sure it still move smoothly though). You can also tighten the pin for the catch lever/cam. A slightly tighter lever spring and you should be good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
