Where the arm connects to the parking brake shaft. His cable was so tight, even with the cable free of it’s connection, they could not get it free. By removing the arm, the shaft could spin, and release the brake. Then put the cable back in it’s mounting location, so nothing gets damaged. We have seen several of these, and released them. Seems to be on a rise. Not sure what’s different, but Ann told me about 5 of them! So, carry 2, 12mm open end wrenches. A wheel chock (small, folding) and something soft to lay on. Hot roads!
Always happy to help, Rick! Thank you for the kind words. We appreciate it!
