05 Dodge Magnum Park Brake Handle pulled out Sign In

The parking brake handle pulled out with the brakes locked ON.

Is there any emergency release for this problem, or do I have to fish the release cable out ?

If you remove the covers to access the parking brake assembly under the dash, the cable will ultimately be connected to a release lever that you should be able to just pull on the release it.

BE VERY CAREFUL WHERE YOUR FINDERS ARE WHEN YOU PULL THAT LEVER BECAUSE THINGS ARE GOING TO SNAP BACK INTO PLACE. DON'T GET YOUR FINGERS CAUGHT!!!!!!!!!!!

The brake mechanism is mostly hidden by a brace, AND I can not find any cable.

If you or ANYONE has a picture or drawing of the brake mechanism I would be ever thankful.

Thanks

You might want to drop the lower cover because it may have just come disconnected from the handle and you can grab the cable from there.

A picture is worth a 1000 words, and over 900 of those are THANK YOU !

I had been fishing/feeling for the cable forever. Two minutes after looking at the pic, I had the brakes released.

Thanks and then some.
