Parking Brake System: Description and Operation




Parking Brake

The parking brake and actuation system consists of the following components:

- Parking brake cables
- Parking brake control
- Parking brake shoes
- Red brake warning indicator

The parking brake system is a foot-operated/cable-actuated system that applies a drum-in-hat assembly within each rear brake disc. A red brake warning indicator is located in the instrument cluster and will illuminate when the system is actuated to alert the driver that the parking brakes are applied.
