Hand brake broke!

[Monkey_beast_182]

Well, I've just pulled up at work, went to pull my handbrake on, and "SNAP". Its bust! I dunno at this stage if its the attachment on the handbrake lever or the cable (do they have cables?)
I dunno... puncture yesterday! They say it comes in threes...

Cables most probably, could be any of 3 so you need to get under and have a look.

That's what I thought. Think it's one to one of the wheels as still got some braking, but just loads of play. Wondering if one of the cables has stretched, which is why all the load was going on one cable, causing it to break. I have had some strange creaking noises from it over the last week or so.

Yeh will be one of the wheel cables if you still have a partial handbrake. Not massively difficult to change or expensive iirc.
