How to Release Tension in a Parking Brake Cable for Service and Repair on 2003 Ford Mustang?

Service and repair operations on the parking brake cable start by placing the parking brake control into the released position since any work within the parking brake system or rear axle housing removal requires cable tension release. The first step is to take off the console while an assistant raises the vehicle from inside. Before proceeding pull the parking brake cable and equalizer toward the rear. The steel pin must stay in place until the parking brake cable as well as the equalizer/rear cable and conduits connect to the parking brake control since releasing the pin creates ratchet wheel tension loss that unravels the spring. The necessary tension should be held by inserting a steel pin between the holes of the lever and ratchet wheel.
