roger.svoboda Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 brakes are made to squeal when the pads are down to the nubbin. brake light on all time probably ought to check your brake fluid level. If not that then defective switch. Maybe should have put new pads in when you put them fancy SS brake lines in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbesheer Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 I know the pads are worn, I will be replacing them when my dad has time to help me because I gotta replae a lot of things down there and have no idea how. But anyways this problem happened before I put in those SS brake lines and the brake fluid was/is at a good level, but i will double check tomorrow. I'm pretty sure it's the parking brake because sometimes the lever would stick and it would make that noise but I would be able to push it further down and it would fix it but not anymore.

BillZ260 Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 If you look at the rear inside fo the brake drum, you will see the cable for the E-Brake. There is a pin one each side that attaches the cable to a lever that apply's the brake. You can pull those pins for a temp fix. Be sure to replace them when you get the problem resolved, and while you drive the car in this state, make sure you take some wheel chocks w/ you!!!

evildky Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 and if you detach one side you disable both sides Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
