Replace handbrake cable
Hey guys,
I have a replacement handbrake cable ready to fit to the car this weekend (as its seized on one side). Just wondering how / where I replace the part where it all joins (near the handbrake lever). Is that under the car or inside the car? Do I need to take anything apart to do this? Cheers, Phil

This page from the Haynes manual might be of some use to you
https://flic.kr/p/26bV2Yo next page: https://flic.kr/p/27dxQWJ Edit: just realised you have a C70. That page is from the s40/v50 book. Not sure if there’s any difference. Last edited by phutyle; May 18th, 2018 at 19:23. |

Took me about 4 hours, and I did need a second pair of hands to put the cables onto the calipers (as once one was on, the other was to tight to fit, so needed someone to slacken the caliper on one side whilst putting the cable on the other side.) Cheers
