try tapping the rotor with a hammer to break the rust holding it to the hub. also need to remove the flat retaining nut which will be found on one of the lug bolts. If it still does not release you need to release the e-brake cable, the pads may have worn into the inner brake lining

Emergency brake problem on a john deere 440 skidder it will no release it feels like there is nothing there?

I use to have a 440c. Do you mean the emergency brake is stuck ? Like the brake pads are stuck in the lock position on the brake disk on the driveline. Something must be froze up or the cable is broke or way to loose to work the brake.

How do you adjust the emergency brake cable on a 93 escort?

Look down in the console in the slot the e-brake lever comes you will see a 10mm nut just tighten it up to remove all the slack Caution do not over tighten this nut or you will break the cable just tighten it enough to remove the slack if it feels like it doesn't want to turn anymore than stop there.

What is a proper way to use anti lock brakes in an emergency situation?

Stomp the brake and steer the vehicle. You should try this at least a couple of times just to know what it feels like. The brake pedal will pulsate and you will hear some really weird noises. This is normal and indicates the system is working. Once you stomp the brakes in an emergency do not release the brake. Simply steer the vehicle out of danger. People are startled by what happens and release the brake, which is the wrong thing to do.

The brakes could be binding or a caliper could be sticking. Remove the wheels and make sure that the brake system is operating properly.


How do you add brake fluid to a 2000 Dodge Stratus SE?

The brake fluid reservoir is usually located in the engine compartment next to the firewall close to the steering column. Remove the cover from the reservoir and fill to the proper level with your vehicle's recommended fluid type. If the brake pedal feels spongy or goes all the way down to the floorboard, you may need to bleed the brake lines.


Where are the sensors for the transmission on a 95 Chevy Blazer and when you put in reverse it acts fine but then when you try to go more in reverse it feels like the emergency brake kicks on?

Sounds like you may have a frozen clutch pack. No quick fix there, talk to a transmission shop.


How do you remove the rear brake cylinder on 1986 celebrity for replacement?

To replace a rear wheel cylinder in a Chevy Celebrity: 1. Put chocks in place so the car can't move. 2. Loosen the lug nuts. 3. Jack the car up a suitable distance and place on jack stands. 4. Finish taking the lug nuts off and remove the tire. 5. Pull the brake drum off. If the emergency brake is on you will need to release it to take the brake drum off. 6. On the back side of the drum remove the brake line with a flare nut wrench. 7. Remove the cylinder retaining ring. I usually pry it off with a pair of screwdrivers. 8. Remove the return springs. 9. Remove the hold down spring retainer then the spring from both shoes. Make careful note of the emergency brake strut and spring so you will know how they go back. 10. If you are only replacing the cylinder and not the brake shoes, then carefully move the shoes aside, but not enough that they fall out. The cylinder can now be maneuvered out. Watch how it works, it goes back about the same way. 11. Put the new cylinder in place then put the retainer ring back on the back. 12. Connect the brake line. 13. Put the shoes back in place making sure the parking brake strut and spring go in place correctly. 14. Put the hold down springs and their retainers back in place. 15, Put the return springs back on. If you took the actuator link off of the parking brake lever put it back in place. 16. At this point verify everything you took off is back in its proper place. 17. If everything is properly back in place put the brake drum on and bleed the brake. Unless the brake pedal feels spongy when you are done bleeding the one cylinder you probably will not need to bleed the entire system 18. When you are satisfied with the that the brake is properly bled put the tire back on and snug the lug nuts. 19. Lower the car and finish tightening the lug nuts. 20. Remove the chocks.
