14. Fully apply and release the park brake lever 3-5 times.
15. Raise the park brake lever 3 detent positions and attempt to rotate the rear tire and wheel assemblies, or the rear brake rotors.
^
If rotating the tire and wheel assemblies, they should be difficult to rotate, but should not be locked.
^
If rotating the brake rotors, they should be locked.
16. Raise the park brake lever one additional detent position and attempt to rotate the rear tire and wheel assemblies, or the rear brake rotors. The tire
and wheel assemblies, or the rear brake rotors should be locked.
17. Fully release the park brake lever.
18. Verify the park brake is released by rotating the rear tire and wheel assemblies, or the rear brake rotors. The rotors should rotate freely and exhibit
no brake shoe drag from the park brake system.
19. With the lever released, if the rotors required more effort to rotate, or exhibited more drag than noted previously when all cable tension was
relieved, check the park brake levers on the rear calipers. The levers should be on the stops.
20. If the levers are not against the stops, loosen the adjusting nut just until the levers rest against the stops, then repeat steps 14-18.
21. If the rotors still do not rotate freely, with the park lever fully released, park brake adjustment is not the cause of any drag in the brake system.
22. Lower the vehicle.
23. Position the park brake lever boot to the floor console and press the boot retainer into place to secure.
24. Release the park brake lever.
