Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview

Check the operation of the parking brake system with the vehicle on a hoist and the parking brake control fully released. Check for any damaged cables and install new components as necessary. Check the rear brake adjustment or perform brake system diagnosis.

Check the parking brake by pulling up on the parking brake control. The parking brake must hold the vehicle on an incline, set by pulling up on the parking brake control before it reaches full travel. If not as specified, check the parking brake system for correct rear brake adjustment, cable operation and parking brake control operation.
