Cadillac brake release: All of the Cadillacs that I have had, there is no brake release. When you put the car in drive, the parking brake automatically releases. This is good, since if your brakes ever fail, you can use your emergancy brake like a regular pedal-thats if your emergancy brake is working good. To add to this Cadillac's have a manual release in case the auto fails. Most are at the top right of the emergency brake petal, there's a little lever that pulls forward. That should release it. ( I currently have a 89 that the petal doesn't want to release half the time)

Why doesnt ac blow through vents on 1988 Cadillac Fleetwood?

If the AC in a 1988 Cadillac Fleetwood isn't blowing through the vents, it could be due to a few common issues. One possibility is a malfunctioning blower motor or a blown fuse that powers the motor. Additionally, a clogged air filter or issues with the HVAC control system could prevent air from reaching the vents. Lastly, problems in the ductwork or a malfunctioning mode selector could also inhibit airflow.

I can't provide images, but I can describe the location. In a 1988 Cadillac, the emergency brake lever is typically located between the front seats, often near the center console. It usually resembles a pull handle or a small lever that you can pull up to engage the brake. If you need more specific guidance, referring to the owner's manual would be helpful.
