    Default 2014 new brembo parking brake adjust?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnIg...yer_detailpage

    My 2014 RS SE-5 parking brake stopped working/ratcheting so I used the above great video and gave it a try. Seems the new 2014 Brembo rear has a differrent setup. I tried this method but the brake arm has a star shaped hole rather than a rod that can easily be turned. I moved it one notch tighter and took up the fine adjust and still no ratchet sound or lock in place happening.
    Help anyone?

    Default Little checking..!!

    there is a spring on the foot pedal that pulls the locking arm into the knotches. Have seen where it weakens or disconnects so you have nor ratchet. Question is is there brake tension..?? If so then it could be the spring. If there is no tension could be the adjustment...

    I've heard of a few 2014 owners with parking brake problems and it turns out to be the little motor and not the spring that was the problem in the past.
