Parking brake cable snapped but brake is on. any

Under the dash, where the break release handle is, you'll see a lever where the release cable is/was attached to. Either push forward, or pull back this lever and it will release the parking break. BE CAREFUL the foot peddle for the parking break doesn't hit you in the face!
Mine broke on the 2nd of this month as well....

I just had my parking brake cable snap on me also. I'm with Denie 1300, it's right under the dash and has a "U" shape lever facing down. Tug on that and the parking brake will release. As a matter of fact, It's a very simple fix, just need to purchase the cable and replace it. If you take it to a dealership, they'll want to charge you a whole bunch, and it's really an easy fix.

Try looking near the drum, mine was found on the lower driver side,( I have a 95 suburban), there is a cable that runs along the length of the frame that may be covered by a black rubber tube, locate the tube closest to the drum and pull as hard as you can on it, it should knock loose.

The first choice for this solution is to have it towed to a shop as this would be the most secure. If you are unable to get it towed, I would try the following with extreme caution.Underneath the vehicle, you should find the brake cable running to the back of the vehicle down the frame rail. Specifically, you are looking for a cable that goes from the rear wheels up to the frame rail. At some point you will find a spot where the cables from both rear wheels joins into one cable. At this point, try pulling the cable towards the back of the vehicle. If you can pull the cable back at this point and the breaks release, then you should be good to go but I would keep a very close eye on the heat of the rear breaks as the breaks may not completely release generating a great amount of heat and causing more damage or even a fire.
