My Handbrake button is slowing dissappearing into the handbrake handle, never done this before, even when the brakes ( hand) needed adjusting which they do now. Is something worn or broken ?
Thanks Ray

hey im ashuming its a leather brake ? other wise the rub one is fairly hard to move,
the only way i know how to fix it, is to remove the drivers chair, 4 t-50 bolts, 5-min job, abd grab the handbrake bouch/rubber and pull down wards towards the floor wiggle it if ya have to, and the button should come all the way back out, also u can tighten it if it needs tightening then, just click it up to the second click and tighten from there. hope that helps cheers brad` |

Two correct answers. Yes the cover was sliding off, not the button going in. All is fixed thank you
