Hi All
I recently have found that when I release the handbrake the lever does not pull down fully leaving the warning light illuminated until I physicaly push the lever down the last two inches.
It flops around with no resistance over that height.
It is possibe that the shoes are nearly worn out, not that I have any probem with the brake itself (though I have pulled of in bottom box recently with the handbrake applied whilt towing swambos 88 project).
I am just wondering whether there is some sort of return spring like on the old series that may have failed.
Anyone got any clues what to look for?
