Mad question due limited time & rain. I thought my handbrake cable had snapped. Sudden loss of handbrake with lever going full travel.
Today removed tool tray to save on time tomorrow at garage. Umm only thing I can see broken is the cable tie that holds the near side (uk) cable to the chassis U section/hoop. Everything seems to move with the lever but not enough to apply the brakes. Nothing wants to pull out of its sheath.
Then rain came down which stopped play. The mad question is if the cable tie has gone so the cable takes an easier route could that cause the handbrake to need copious amount of adjustment to function. Yes I know just try another cable tie but rain was pretty monsoon “esque”
Whatever i’ll Report back after techniques have had a look.
