How do you release an emergency parking brake if the release handle is broken for a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica?

I have had the same problem. I simply removed the broken plastic handle which left the cable with a metal hook end exposed which you can pull directly toward the rear of the car. It is a little uncomfortable and works better with gloves. I am looking for a replacement online, but haven't found one yet

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.

If you look at the emergency pedal assembly you should see a lever that has a "u" curve at the bottom of the lever (it is up in the body part of the assembly) pull or pry the lever rearward it should release the pedal (THE PEDAL WILL RELEASE HARD SO...BE CAREFUL)

I'm thinking about what you said, and I release probably you don't have emergency brake on, it could be something broken on the rear brake hardware, So you have to pull your tires off and check the brake springs and check emergency brake cables under the truck,

The answer will depend on the part needing replacement. Is the cable broken? Do you need part of the handle or brake mechanism or are the brake shoes worn out? Determine the problem then either visit your local Toyota dealer or check online for the replacement part cost. Cheers


How do you release emergency brake on a 2002 GMC Yukon XL with broken cable release?

My 2002 Yukon XL emergency brake cable just shredded this week. The cable is only a couple feet long and connects the release latch to a lever just above the emergency brake pedal (while depressed). The lever can be manually released by hand but be careful to guard your face as it could be in the path of the rising brake pedal. It may require 2 or 3 manual trips of the lever to get the brake pedal released to the highest position.I am still trying to determine where I can buy a replacement cable (other than GMC dealer) and whether I can replace it myself.
