Where is the handbrake in Honda cars?
1 Answers
Honda cars mainly have three types of handbrakes: mechanical handbrake, foot brake, and electronic handbrake, with different configurations depending on the model. The knowledge about the brakes is as follows: Location of the mechanical handbrake: In front of the center console between the driver and front passenger seats. Location of the foot brake: On the left side of the brake pedal in the driver's position. Location of the electronic handbrake: Next to the gear lever and adjacent to the auto-hold button. Function of the handbrake: The professional term for the handbrake is auxiliary brake, which operates differently from the main brake. It uses a steel cable connected to the rear brake shoes to apply braking force to the vehicle. Long-term use of the handbrake can cause plastic deformation of the steel cable. Since this deformation is irreversible, prolonged use will reduce its effectiveness, and the handbrake's travel distance will increase.
