I usualy use my ebrake when I park on a hill but today when I left one of the stores I went to my ebrake only released half way and is stuck on. When I pump it, it only ratchets a couple times down and releases half way back to normal. Do you have any ideas on how to release it? Im hoping its only frozen since its -15 degrees up here in MN but ive never had that problem before except with my hood latch.

Hi

Are you able to get your car to a warm garage?

ive got a 30,000 btu heater for ice fishing that kinda warms the garage but being -20 right now I dont know how much it will heat the garage

Sounds frozen too me. I would park the car in the garage and put the heater close to the rear of the car to try to thaw that stuff out.

Sounds like it'* frozen. Try to get her warm and they should realease.

If it doesn't thaw out, you'll need to gain access to the E-Brake arm on the rear wheel drums. Sometimes a little brake cleaner, a thump of two and some WD-40 on the cable will free it up.
