Parking Brake Cable RH

Parking Brake Cable RH

Removal

CAUTION: It is essential that absolute cleanliness is observed when working on the parking brake actuator. Always cover any open orifices using lint free non-flocking material to prevent the ingress of foreign matter. Failure to follow this instruction may result damage to the components.

CAUTION: The parking brake actuator fault memory must not be erased.

NOTE:
If the parking brake system has completed less than 50,000 cycles it is permissible to replace the parking brake cables. If over 50,000 cycles have been completed, then the parking brake cables can only replaced as part of the parking brake actuator and cable assembly. The parking brake cycle count can be checked using the Land Rover approved diagnostic system, (ON/OFF = 1 cycle). If a parking brake cable becomes detached whilst the vehicle is being driven, a 'parking brake actuator unblocking procedure' may be required using the Land Rover approved diagnostic system. If a parking brake cable breaks then the complete parking brake actuator and cable assembly should be replaced.

NOTE:
It is not necessary to carry out the parking brake shoe 'bedding-in procedure' if the rear brake discs or parking brake shoes have been removed for access to other components.
1 Using the Land Rover approved diagnostic system, drive the parking brake to the mounting position.
