Why is it difficult to pull the handbrake?

[Lawson]

Reasons for difficulty in pulling the handbrake: The cable has been used for a long time and is rusted inside, making it hard to pull, which requires replacing the cable; the gap is too small, making it hard to pull, and a mechanic can adjust it. The handbrake does not need to be pulled too tight, generally 4~6 ratchet teeth are sufficient. Below is a detailed introduction about the handbrake: 1. Parking and turning off the engine with the handbrake on: The handbrake, also known as the parking brake, provides resistance to the car when parked to prevent it from rolling. Automatic transmissions do not require the driver to manually shift gears; the vehicle automatically selects the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. 2. Parking in neutral with the handbrake on: Generally, automatic transmission cars have six gear positions, from top to bottom: P, R, N, D, S, L.
