To replace the front parking brake cable on a 2005 Chevy Colorado, first, lift the vehicle and secure it on jack stands. Remove the rear wheels and brake drums to access the parking brake components. Disconnect the old cable from the brake lever and the rear brakes, then route the new cable in the same path as the old one. Finally, secure the new cable, reassemble the brake components, and test the parking brake for proper function before lowering the vehicle.
Check that the hand brake is not applied. Check the conditions of your brakes like the drums check if there any grooves or are hot to the touch. If you feel any grooves replaces brakes and lathe the drums or replace the drums aswell.
