Good day all, having issues with a hand brake.
1995 Rt/10
Symptoms:
Parking Brake does not engage.
Handle pulled to the full upright position "clicks" but the opposite gear than pulls the cable does not move.
I've hit everything with copious amounts of WD40 and everything moves as it should but the action between the handle lever and the opposing gear that pulls the cable in, is not responding. I'm not sure if something is missing, broke or just worn out. There is what appears to be catch that is just short of the teeth. I'm unsure if it's supposed to be stationary.
The spring still has plenty of pull but that could be it. Or something is broken. This seems really simple but my service manual doesn't provide pictures for my problem. I'll attach some photos so hopefully someone understands my gibberish.
