Saab 9-5 DIY: Handbrake Adjustment - Trionic Seven

This is a detailed instruction on how to tension the handbrake on your Saab 9-5, all model years. As the handbrake shoes wear down you need to perform this adjustment to get them to work correctly. If your handbrake is weak, does not stop the car, or if you must pull the lever hard before the brakes engage, this is the first thing to try. The car shown in this video is Annas' 2006 Saab 9-5 Vector 2.0t Biopower Wagon. Note that if this adjustment fails you might need to get new handbrake shoes and a new wire. They don't last forever. Other names for the handbrake is the parking brake or e-brake. Swedish: Så här justerar och ställer man in handbromsen på Saab 9-5. Det är ett vanligt fel på besiktningen att man har en handbroms som tar dåligt. Man ställer in handbromsen vid backarna och vid vajern.
