Okay the parking brake wont hold on my LTZ. Here is what is done:
-New parking brake shoes.
-Brakes professionally adjusted
-Parking brake components at the axle are good
-New pair of pull-cables from mid-chassis to the parking brake levers
-Rotors good
This pretty only leaves the main pull-cable from the pedal to mid-chassis, and the pedal assembly.
So when you push the pedal, there is certainly some resistance, and it seems the brake should hold some. I can push it the maximum amount, and it wont hold at all even on a very slight grade. It just plain does not work. The brake shop is blaming the pedal.
So from my research, the pedal self adjusts. Is this true? Is there a reset mechanism in the pedal so that it can adjust from scratch? I feel nothing abnormal with the pedal. I can really see evidence of stretch from the main single pull-cable.
Thanks guys.
