1. Place the park brake lever in the full release position.
2. Raise and suitably support the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle.
Notice: Handling the parking brake cables during service requires extra care. Damage to the nylon coating reduces the corrosion protection. If the
damage area passes through the nylon coating, increased parking brake effort could result. Avoid contacting the protective coating with sharp-edge
tools or the sharp surfaces of the vehicle underbody.

extended position.
4. Lower the vehicle.
5. Rotate the self-adjust clip into the lock position with a flat-bladed tool.
6. Raise the vehicle.
7. Remove the locking plier from the park brake cable.
