Yes parking brake will still work. It is mechanical with a wire going from pedal/handle that when pulled squeezes the brake shoes round the rotor. Just go real slow and you should be alright. Hope this helped you.

SOURCE: hand brake nissan pathfinder

If you lift the hand brake you should find an adjustment nut (I think it is 10MM). Tighten that and you should be good to go. Be careful, it doesn't take much to adjust - turn gradually/slowly.

i hope i was able to help you with your problem! tc!

SOURCE: brake lights do not go off even if car is not running

Your brake light switch is broken. The switch has a spring that is supposed to disengage the switch when you let off the brake pedal, it's either stuck, or broken. A new brake light switch should resolve your issue.

I hope this helps you, and I wish you luck on your repair.

SOURCE: Adjust rear brakes 1995 Nissan Pathfinder 4WD

if they are disk brakes, they are not adjustable. if they are drums they should auto adjust. if they are not, then there is a problem that you have to pull the tire, then the drum, to diagnose it. you may have to disassemble the brake shoes and springs, and clean and lube the self adjusters

Pathfinder 2004 gear not shfting from parking to drive

A possible inexpensive and easy solution to check first would be the Brake Switch, located on the floorboard right behind the Brake pedal. The Pedal may have become misaligned with the switch or the switch may have broken somehow and isn't lined up thus Not activating the release of you being able to shift out of Park. Or the switch is just broken.

Emergency brake light stays on also battery light on

Assuming there is not a problem with the parking brake (as in a stuck switch), the red "BRAKE" light will remain on if your brake fluid is low (for your regular service brakes). Check your fluid, and if it is low, check your brakes and brake lines to be sure there isn't a leak somewhere, as this could be dangerous!

Brake fluid level will drop slightly as your brake pads/shoes wear over time. If you need brake pads or shoes, avoid topping the fluid off, as it will overflow when you go to compress the pistons in the calipers later on (when changing your brake pads). If you MUST add fluid, only add to the "FULL" mark. If you have a leak, remember the brakes must be bled after you repair the leak.

The battery light signifies a charging problem. You will need to check the output of your alternator, as in volts AND amps. Usually a local garage will be able to perform a quick (and cheap) check of your charging system. Check your battery too, to be sure that it holds a good charge.

My brake light in dash has been on for 3 days 1986 nissan pathfinder, my hand brake is not engaged, anyone know how to fix or what to check?

hi this brake light also comes on if the brake fluid level is low try topping up? if fluid is very low ? then it could be due to a leak on brake system ie wheel cylinder of a pipe? or it could be fluid has displaced to cyls /calipers due to wear of brake pads and or brake shoes ?? SO if you have not checked fluid recently ?honestly ?? may i suggest if light goes off after top up of fluid ? check your b/pads they may req replacing asap before they damage discs ?hope this helps
