How to Adjust a Loose Car Foot Brake?
1 Answers
For vehicles with hydraulic brakes, you need to crawl under the car and use a long flat-head screwdriver to adjust the tension spring of the brake shoes. Locate the square rubber plug beneath the two hydraulic lines, remove it, and then use the screwdriver to adjust the teeth inside. Below is some related information about foot brakes and handbrakes: 1. Foot Brake: A foot-operated parking brake, as the name suggests, is controlled by the foot and is commonly found in automatic transmission vehicles. 2. Handbrake: The traditional 'handbrake' is operated by hand, with an operating force of less than 200N (equivalent to 20 kilograms of force). However, for many women who lack strength, this operation is not very user-friendly, often resulting in insufficient parking brake force and causing the vehicle to roll. The foot-operated parking brake effectively resolves this issue.
