Instructions: how to tighten the handbrake on a Priora - price of parts

Since ancient times, some Taz drivers used first gear to prevent the car from rolling away, even with a handbrake, my dad always taught me to set the speed. But this can end badly if you don’t turn off the speed and start the car. Over time, the parking brake, due to constant use, stretches the cable, you can tighten it a limited number of times, then you have to remove it, because tightening it is already useless.

He stops holding the car and is not fixed. You can tighten the handbrake on the Priora with just two 8 keys in the hole. This is usually done in your garage. Replacing the drive and handbrake cable on a Priora will require additional keys. Of all the brake systems of the Priora car, the parking one stands out separately. It saves you from unpleasant surprises - while it is working, the car will not roll away in the parking lot. When the handbrake doesn't hold, you should start repairing it right away, maybe you just need to tighten it. Lada Priora received the part as early as 2108 - it has not been changed since then.

When the driver raises the handbrake handle higher and higher to hold the car in place, this indicates that the parking brake system is not working. Most often this can be solved by tightening it, just tighten the cable and the handbrake will hold. There may be several malfunctions in the parking brake system of a Priora car; read the article to the end and find out about them.

How much does it cost to tighten the handbrake and can you do it yourself?

Actually the question is rhetorical, as you understand in different regions, the cost can range from 200 to 1000 rubles. For example, in the capital, the price is often 500 – 1000, but in the regions you can raise it for 250 rubles.

And to be honest, the work itself only takes a few minutes, the main thing is to find a hole or a lift, a key of 10 and off you go. You need to tighten the middle bolt, the one that is in the middle, it is the handbrake, tighten the nut and thereby tighten the cables.

Of course, if they are rusty or torn, then everything is much more complicated; it is better to trust the master, because replacing the cables from the rear drums is not at all an easy task.

That's all, read our AUTOBLOG, I think it clarified the situation.

Basic faults

According to the law, a malfunction of the handbrake is accepted in two cases:

• If, at a 16% slope, the handbrake does not hold the equipped car (without cargo and passengers, but with a full tank of gasoline, the driver’s weight is taken to be 75 kg).
• If, on a 23% incline, the handbrake does not hold the vehicle at full load (the maximum permissible vehicle weight has been reached).

In reality, more often than not, a malfunction of this brake mechanism of the Lada Priora is noticed not by measuring the steepness of the slope, but by clicks. When another click of the handbrake is added to the usual “set of sounds” when leaving the car, every car enthusiast understands that it’s time to tighten the cable.

But the problems don't end there. For the parking brake system they can be as follows:

• The cable has stretched too far. Over time, it undergoes deformation. It can be tightened, but to a certain extent.
• The cable broke. When the “limit” is reached, the mechanical device will have to be replaced.
• The handbrake indicator on the dashboard does not light up or go off. This is due to the sensors.
• The lever button is stuck.

5. Remove the cable end by pulling it through the special bracket.
6. Remove the brackets that hold the cable in place.
7. Using a screwdriver, press down on the actuator lever to move it further away from the brake pad. The lever should move to the forward position. After this, you can disconnect the cable tip from the brake lever.
8. Loosen the nut on the rear beam that holds the cable, and then pull it towards you.
9. Pull the cable through the bracket that is attached to the body, then through the brake shield.

Removing elements of the parking brake system

We replace the parking brake cables when they are broken, pulled out, or stuck inside the sheaths, when adjusting the parking brake fails to keep the car stationary on a slope - up to 25% inclusive. We remove the parking brake lever to replace it or to replace the lever rod. The cables should be replaced simultaneously - left and right. We show the replacement of the left cable. Move the parking brake lever to its lowest position. We unscrew the locknut and the adjusting nut from the parking brake lever rod (see “Adjusting the parking brake”).

Adjusting the handbrake: how to tighten or loosen

The parking brake is an integral part of the automobile braking system. Its purpose is to prevent spontaneous movement of the vehicle when parking.

Replacing the Priora parking brake cable

The handbrake is used in extreme cases - for example, when the brake fails. Without a handbrake it is difficult to move on a sloped road. As you can see, the parking brake is a useful mechanism.

Therefore, keep the handbrake in working condition and regularly carry out diagnostics, tighten and adjust it.

Checking the serviceability of the handbrake

Every car enthusiast can carry out the simplest diagnosis of proper operation of the parking brake. Select a section of road with a slope of 23–25%. Stop, put the gear in neutral and tighten the handbrake. If the car does not move after releasing the main brake pedal, then the handbrake operates.

How to use the handbrake

On a note. Car maintenance service workers recommend checking the operation of the parking brake at least once a month.

When tightening the parking brake lever, pay attention to the number of clicks of the ratchet mechanism. If the handbrake is in good condition, there should be from two to four clicks. If there are fewer of them, then you need to release the parking brake drive

Otherwise we tighten it up. Let's look at step-by-step adjustment of the handbrake using the example of a Lada Kalina car.

If there are fewer of them, then you need to release the parking brake drive. Otherwise we tighten it up. Let's look at step-by-step adjustment of the handbrake using the example of a Lada Kalina car.

It is convenient to carry out adjustments on an inspection hole or overpass. It's better to do it with an assistant. You will need the following tools: two open-end wrenches for 13, a wrench, an extension, sockets for 10 and 13, WD-40.

In motorsports, the handbrake helps put the car into a controlled drift. This requires certain skills and abilities.

Which handbrake cable is suitable for the grant?

Remove the muffler from the rubber pads and move it to the side

To get to the handbrake adjustment mechanism, you must first remove the muffler from the rubber cushions and move it to the side. There is protection above the middle part of the resonator. It needs to be removed. The protection is secured with 4 bolts, unscrew them using a wrench and a 10mm socket.

Unscrew the protective screen over the central part of the resonator. It is secured with 4 bolts with a 10mm head.

Pull up the parking brake

1. Lower the handbrake lever down.
2. Loosen the drive locknut with a 13mm wrench. Using a 13mm wrench, unscrew the locknut on the handbrake rod
3. Tighten the nut on the lever rod. The length of the drive will decrease, the tension will increase.
4. Check the operation of the handbrake. Tighten it up to 4 clicks.
5. Spin the rear wheels. If they are fixed, then tighten the locknut.

If the wheels rotate with difficulty when the handbrake is lowered, then the parking brake must be loosened.

1. Lower the parking brake handle down.
2. Loosen the locknut.
3. Unscrew the nut on the lever rod, the cable tension will decrease.
4. Check how the wheels rotate. If they rotate freely, tighten the locknut.

Checking operation after adjustment

After replacing the brake cables, drum shoes and adjusting the parking brake drive, the handbrake operation is checked and adjusted.

Place the car on an overpass or inspection hole. We will divide the adjustment procedure into 2 stages. At the first stage, we check the operation of the parking brake when it is not tightened.

1. Hang up the rear wheels.
2. Lower the handbrake lever down.
3. Rotate the rear wheels by hand; if the pads rub against the brake drum, then you need to release the parking brake drive.
4. Loosen the locknut on the lever rod. Unscrew the nut on the lever rod a few turns.
5. Repeat steps 3, 4 and ensure that the wheels begin to rotate freely without any extraneous noise.

Second stage: checking the operation of the handbrake

1. Tighten the lever 4 clicks and try to spin the wheels. If they spin freely, then you need to tighten the handbrake drive.
2. Release the locknut.
3. Tighten the nut on the rod a few turns.
4. Release the parking brake lever and tighten again 3-4 clicks.
5. Spin the wheels one by one. Full locking in a correctly adjusted parking brake occurs at 4 clicks.
6. Repeat steps 3–5 if the handbrake operates at the 5th click or higher.

After adjustment, tighten the locknut. Install the protective screen and hang the muffler on rubber pads.

When operating your vehicle, do not neglect the parking brake. Its serviceability will improve driving safety and help avoid troubles on the road or parking lot. Check the handbrake every month. If any malfunctions occur, fix them as quickly as possible.

Replacing handbrake cables — Lada Priora Universal, 1.6 l., 2011 on DRIVE2

My father inherited a car with a very poorly functioning handbrake, which didn’t suit me at all. The handbrake only worked for a couple of clicks, but it only held on in a straight line; any slope and the car was already rolling. I decided that the problem was in one of the cables that was jammed. At one point I decided to change the pads. As it turned out, they were not the only ones that required replacement. Spare parts: Hand brake cable 2 pcs. RUB 412. Rear brake pads set for ABS? R. (bought a long time ago by my father) Brake cylinder 2 pcs. 500 rub.
