Just finished opening a 97 Venture with hood release cable not attached. You need a flat 13mm ratchet, not offset not long, the gear wrench i used was 7".You have 4 bolts, some are easy some are not, come at the bolt from different angles. Once you get 3(I did lf-lr then rf rr) gently pry up the hood with a flat bar and your there. About 1 hour

How do you release the emergency brake if the cable is broke on a 1992 Chevy s10 it is the one you push with your foot?

It depends which cable is broken. If the main cable is broken under the truck, the brakes should release on their own. If the brakes dont release, the cables are frozen from rust and need to be replaced. If the release cable from the handle to pedal assemdly is broken reach under the dash above the pedal and find the small release arm. Pull the arm toward you [ the rear of vehicle ] and the emergency brake pedal will release.

Can you release the parking brake if the cable brakes ON A 2004 AVALANCHE 1500 CHEVY?

parking brake is held on by a ratchet inside the car, ,so if the cable is broken your brakes will not be locked onif they are, you have more than a broken cable problem.--------------I beg to differ. It may be that it's only the release cable that is broken. This was the case in my older (79) Chevy Malibu. It wasn't the actual brake cable that broke. So my parking brake was stuck on. Ok then i did find a little lever part that i could pull back on beneath the dash, it was sort of connected to the parking brake pedal base. Look underneath the dash by the ebrake pedal, see if you can trace the route from the release handle to where its little pull cable might attach. That is the point where you would want to pull back to release the pedal. it worked for me, but of course it's a different type of Chevy. Just be careful as those moving parts will then release and you want to keep your fingers safe.--purry1
