Every time you stop and park your car, whether it be an automatic or manual transmission, every time, without fail. You want to be sure that the car cannot and will not move while parked. Don't take chances.
check the parking brake cables, any applied tension, and condition of the brake shoes
The integral brake is a parking brake that is on the inside of a disk brake system . This system use cables to engage the parking brake just the same a drum brake system.
Depress the button on the parking brake handle and move the lever down
The parking brake light comes on when you engage the parking brake. Pull the parking brake release handle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the brake light also comes on if the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder is low ( in your engine compartment )
If the parking brake does not engage fully, the rear (shoe type) brakes need to be adjusted or replaced.
That is the parking brake cable. It runs to the rear wheels to engage the parking brake whenever the pedal is depressed. Be sure to use the parking brake whenever you park your vehicle to prevent rust in the parking brake cable and to prevent damage to your Automatic Transmission
Shut the car off, engage the parking brake and when you turn the car back on the lights will stay off until you release the parking brake.
When you park your vehicle.

No , the brake light should come on when you press the parking brake pedal , but the ABS light should not come on
I was looking at the 1996 Ford Crown Victoria Owner Guide and that's NORMAL The parking brake will release automatically when any forward gear is selected The parking brake will also not engage with the vehicle in any forward gear
There is a sequence you have to follow in the manual. off the top of my head... after you turn your car on, you have to engage the parking break, disengage the parking break, and then re-engage the parking break. read the manual or just google it for the correct instructions to remove the video restriction
