182 handbrake cable

[182michael]

One of my handbrake cables has snapped at the rear caliper is it one cable down the middle of the car from the handbrake then a cable to each caliper off that?

Theres a cable from the actual handbrake lever to the equaliser plate and then two cables from the plate to the each of calipers. Cables will set you back about £65-70 for the pair from Renault and from what I've just seen under mine it looks like a right c**t of a job lol.

Should be a simple enough job on the 182.

Easy job. Just remove the centre heat shield. Slacken off the equaliser. Remove the broken one, replace. Tighten up. Bish Bash Bosh!!!

Should be...except when you only have a s**t jack, it's raining and you're in a bad mood lol.
