the parking brake handle is seized on my 91 z with disc brakes in the rear, i was wondering if it could be a problem with the cable or maybe the rear caliper is seized, i am told it is a common problem in our cars. anyone elese have the same problem??

 

what do you mean by "seized"?

My parking break doesn't even work.

 

i cant pull up on the parking brake handle next to the shifter, it wont budge!

 

i have a similar problem when ever i go to pull up on my brake it is hesitant, then when it budges there is a weird thump sound im just gonna have my cable replaced.

 

I can pull mine all the way up, but nothing happens :P

 

same with me, i can pull it up, but it doesn't do anything

 

I have to pull mine up, put it down, and pull it back up. Then it works fine, but you have to do it at least twice, sometimes three times.

 

hm... I haven't tried that... I'll try it

 

Common cause of non-working parking brake is lack of use. The cables rust in place and need to be lubed to free them up.
