Default Anyone know how???

Hey guys- Anyone know how to adjust the e-brake on my 92??? It only seems to grab a little when I pull all the way up. The rear brakes were done not to long ago so there should be plenty of pad... thanks for any help.

It is supposed to adjust automatically. Cycling the lever three times should result in parking brake lever movement of 3 to 5 notches when a 270Nm (61 lb.) force is applied.

If it cycling the handle doesn't work shoot me an email and I will scan the 8 pages of the parking brake section in the helms.

You've got mail sorry about all of the emails. My ISP choke when I send more than a meg at a time and when I sent them as one email the compression made them look like crap.


Good luck!

Mike

Now comes the advise buy the HELMS Manual
For my 95 it is a large two volume (size of a large city's telephone book)scholarly tome filled with tons of minutia and useful information.
