[DML] Re: Power Windows & Parking brake

["DMC Joe" <dmcjoe@xxxx>]

Jonathan,

If both parking brake calipers are adjusted properly the parking break
handle should only rise a few inches. If moves more than 45 degrees your
parking brake calipers are out of adjustment. Missing parking brake pads and
miss aligned handle to caliper cables will also cause this problem.
