If you have rear disc it's adjusted by ratching the rear,so if you have a pull up parking brake pull up and down 3 quick times,if it's on the floor press down and up three quick times.

Why can't we get parking brake to release?

Most likely there is an issue with the parking brake cable. Replacing the cable shouldn't be too expensive.

How do you adjust headlight on 2008 uplander

If you look at the top of the head light assembly with the hood open just past the top rubber seal, you will see an alan head adjustor screw. This will adjust the low beam light up and down. the high beams are fixed. I would suggest shining your headlights on to a wall or garage door to get them to the same hight you need.

I am assuming that the design was not changed from my 2005 updander to your 2008. I had to adjust mine while on a road trip. We had a lot of people and stuff in my vehicle which made the headlights shine higher than normal. I was getting a lot of on commig traffic flashing. I was able to ajust them down fairly easy with those adjustor screws. Hope this helps.

How to ajust rear brake caliper 2008 dodge caravan

disc brake calipers to my knowledge have no adjustment. they have problems due to improper bleeding, pads wearing out, and stuck components which do not allow pinching and relaxing with pushing and releasing of the pedal. if you are talking about the parking brake, that is a horse of another color.

2008 Chevrolet Uplander. The car activates abs for no reason and records c0196 trouble code in the abs module.

• An internal fault within the yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer, P/N 15189628, may be the first possible cause. • The vehicle stability enhancement system (VSES) electronic brake traction control module See if this info helps

How can adjust the emergency brake for my 2004 GMC Envoy...

YOUR MOST LIKELY PROBLEM IS IN THE REAR ROTORS. THE PARK BRAKE AREA WILL RUST INWARD WEARING OUT THE PARK BRAKE SHOE. THE ADJUSTER IS UNDER THE ROTOR ALSO. ONE ON EACH SIDE.

ADJUST THE SHOE OUT UNTIL IT TOUCHES THE DRUM AND THEN BACK IT OFF ABOUT 6-7 CLICKS.

Rear brakes need ajustment on Buick Lesabre

I don't know if this works on a Buick but I have had two cars that the auto adjusters worked when you used the parking brake, I rarely use the parking brake so I got in the habit of working the parking brake 20 times or so at oil change time.

93 Ford thunderbird parking brake adjustment

on most of the cars us use a special spanner tool that resembles a bent screwdriver. you pull the plastic cap out from the back of the drum and then just turn the ajustment wheel till you feal it tighten up a litle. Remember to put the plastic cap back on. Also a old trick most people don't know about is put the car in reverse in a parking lot, and slam on the brakes. most cars have a auto ajustment that they never use.
