I'm finally attending to minor but important details-
now that my car seems a tad more reliable that in the past.
When purchased, my car had a hand brake handle but the hand
brake did not seem to function, even a little bit. DPO Pedro
said it needed adjusting.
I later found out there were no cables connecting the handle to
the rear brakes. I purchased the entire Roadster Factory
hand brake kit but it did not include the arm itself.
Blah, blah, blah I now have a mostly functional handbrake
that will hold my car on a minor incline.
My problem is with the existing arm. It has a spring sticking
out of the end with a black plastic button on the end. Neither
seem to serve any purpose.
I must pull the hand brake arm upward with one hand, while
pushing the toothed piece into the matching toothed piece.
To release, I have to pull the handle more upward, pinch the
toothed piece and pull it away from the matching toothed piece.
Somehow that spring and button are involved but nothing happens
when I push them.
Any and all suggestions welcomed,
dale
