As above; the parking brake pedal won't stay in place and the release cable is loose. I've had a look and can see half of the pawl is still attached to the pedal and the rest is presumably behind the dashboard still attached to the cable.
I've ordered a second hand pedal assembly but would rather rob it for parts rather than replace the whole thing which looks as if it would need the front cable releasing.
Can anyone advise on this?
