Is a paring brake required if the service brakes work proper?

The parking brake on most vehicles uses a cable to operate part of the service brake to prevent the vehicle from moving while parked. In some instances the parking brake cable can stretch/break/freeze and not allow the cable to engage the service brake component (shoe or caliper).Mostly if the parking brake does not work, you can drive the vehicle normally and the brakes work fine. Possibly a parking brake may be partially engaged causing the shoe or pad of one or two wheels to be in contact with the rotor or drum causing drag.

The parking brake light in your 1986 Golf blinks on and off every once in a while when your driving down the road what could be wrong?

Check the position sensor switch that detects when the parking brake is engaged. It might just be adjusted wrong.another optionCheck the level of the brake fluid. If there is a sensor on the reservoir cap it could be low enough to be triggering the sensor. Another Answer:I own a 93 jetta GL and my parking break light would not turn off, there is a relay switch on the fuse-box that turns the headlights off when I pull the parking break. I pulled it out and my parking break light turned off, and still turns on when I pull the parking break ... weird ... you can hear the relay engage when you pull the parking break so if you follow the noise you will know which relay to pull. Fortunately the relay is easy to reinstall if this is not the problem. I believe the 1st answer is also correct, there is a switch that is depressed on the parking break itself, might have to pull off the cover but it will be easy to find.


How do you turn off the break sensor light on a 2000 ford ranger?

In your gauge cluster there is a brake light which lights up if the emergency (parking) brake is engaged or if the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder is low ( in your engine compartment) Also there is an ABS brake warning light that comes on if something is wrong with the ABS braking system - fuse , sensor , wiring connection etc. If it's anything more than releasing your parking brake , get it checked by a professional.

What is the pedal to the left of the break in the Chevy Malibuu?

If it's all the way over on the left, it's the parking/emergency brake. You set and release the parking brake with this pedal. If it's right next to the brake, it's a clutch.
