Your hand brake ford explorer2000 does not work how can you repair it as DIY?
Examine the brake cable from the cab all the way back to the rear wheels. If the cable isn't broken, pull the wheels and drums and check for wear on the brake shoes. It might just be an indication that you need to replace the rear brakes. Once the drums are off, have someone operate the hand brake while you watch the cables. If the cables aren't pulling, find out where the cable is broken.

Look at the two cable going to each drum to see if just one is stuck on or both. IS it drum or disc? It is the emergency brake cable. It happened to me once before and the tow truck driver said the release is the same as in a Cadillac, but that doesn't help me and I can't afford another tow truck driver. In a caddilac you put it in drive to release the parking brake. But when the cable is broken you can't engage the parking brake.

I don't know about Silverado trucks but all of the emergency (parking) brakes I'm familiar with use the brake cable to "pull" and hold the brake against the drum (or disk), so if the cable breaks you simply cannot apply the emergency brake. That is, it is automatically released if the the cable breaks.

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.
