How do you adust handbreak on a volvo s40 2002

There may just be a burned out bulb in the dash or you may have a button not making a connection at the handbreak. The RPM issue it completely different and may have many causes.

For left right you use and allen wrench on top of the light housing. Up and down is a knob on the back of the housing.

As long as the gear shift calbe is routed correctly and adjusted correctly you can be sure you have a input spline problem the first sign is hard to engage first gear and hard to engage in reverse the S 40 have known problems for this your dealer should know TSB 43-47

there is a cover on the back of the handbrake (rear seat) that comes off after you pull out the two plastic screws in the rear. i was then able from the back seat to reach a wrench into the opening to tighten the nut attached to the brake cable just below the parking brake. you may need to pull up on the parking brake slightly while you turn the nut to keep the cable tight.

Make sure you have a good connection between your starter and battery cable to the battery. Also check your ground connection from the battery. Your battery is the source of power that kicks the starter to turn. So just follow the battery cables to be sure they are clean and have a good connection.

Sir,
This sign ( ! ) means that your car Handbreak is pulled. This a sign for Handbreak

there is screw in thw console at the base of the e brake handle and under neath on cable let me know hry vote for me ok

Take out the console around the handbrake check the connector and wiring to the handbrake. Make sure it is not grounded or touching something metal

aftermarket brake and rotors ,also calipers that temporarly stick causes this squeking problem,replace if worn and use special lubrication for these parts including the shims
