Ebrake adjustment - Honda Prelude Forum

SiLudeH23A · 08-19-2002, 08:22 PM

my Ebrake is kinda loose and i want to tighten it up. i can pull it the whole way up until it stops and it doesnt make that much of a difference. i know its possible to adjust it but i dont know how, so if anyone could help me out that would be cool.

remove the console to give yourself access to the ebrake handle. then turn the nut on the end of the rod connected to the handle - thats what you use to adjust the cable tension.

Twist the nut connected to the rod.... Hope you don't give your girl those instructions....

Kinda off topic but doesn't the pads on the rear wheels make a big difference of how far you can pull the handle up?

Yes, actually it does. Good point!

Yea, check your rear brake pads first, they might be worn out.
