Replacing the Parking Brake

Model: Volvo Xc90 MK 1 - Years 2002-2014
Part: Parking brake

The parking brake is a very important component of the car, especially when parking or stopping on an uneven surface. If you have good manual skills, you do not need to go to a specialized shop and can proceed on your own. Carefully remove the broken cable, and following the reverse procedure used to take out the broken cable, install the new one. Once everything is mounted, it is advisable to have the car tested to ensure that the entire procedure has been performed correctly.
