Default Parking Brake Exploded View

Does anyone have a schematic of the parking brake for a 1984 Corvette? I have 1 spring that was broke and can not find where it should be connected.

Thanks in advance, 2 projects complete and this remaining and the vette will be back on the road after 4 years sitting.

Chuck

That site is great and have it bookmarked now,what I need is the handle in the car that engages/disengages the brake. Works fine,but I noticed a broken spring, so trying to figure out where it goes.

Thanks for the site!

There's no parts serviced for the parking brake in the car other than the switch for the light. The earliest part # 14050061 '84 - '86MY only, it appears to change to an '87MY # 14105127 so if you found used from anything '87MY or earlier you should be good.

The switch would likely have a "flat spring" as a part of it. Switch is # 14047181.

Do you have a snapshot of the broken part?
