What to Do When the Handbrake Is Stuck and Won't Move?
1 Answers
The handbrake cable is stuck and requires disassembly and repair at a repair shop. If the brake caliper does not reset, remove the caliper, take out the fixing pin on the caliper, clean it with a cleaner or rust remover, apply an appropriate amount of grease, and then reinstall it. The metal handbrake cable may rust, and debris may enter the outer sleeve of the handbrake cable, preventing the cable from resetting after the handbrake is released. Check if the parking spot is on a slope. If it is, press the accelerator slightly before releasing the handbrake. If it's on flat ground, the handbrake may have been pulled too tight.
