Hi All,



My foot operated parking brake has gone faulty on my 14plate E250

I can press it down and hear the ratchet but it comes straight back up.

Also the release handle is now just loose.

Anyone had this before?

Thanks

Yes I got the info from here I undone the panel above the pedals and the cable had slipped out. Pulled it back and it popped in. All good now
