How to replace the front parking brake cable on Cadillac Eldorado?

Vehicle elevation and support are required as the first step to replace the front parking brake cable. Detach the front cable from the intermediate cable at the adjuster before removing the cable housing nut that passes through the underbody. Lower the vehicle while removing the I/P sound insulator before disconnecting the cable from the pedal assembly and pulling the cable out of the car. Start by mounting the new cable onto the vehicle framework before it can be connected to the pedal assembly. First reinstall the I/P sound insulator before readjusting the vehicle position while supporting it with proper methods. The front cable must be attached to the intermediate cable assembly located at the underbody before connecting to the adjuster for installation. The final step requires a check of the parking brake adjustment.

Is the adjustment of the parking brake cables necessary whenever the rear cables have been loosened or disconnected on Cadillac Eldorado?

Adjusting the parking brake cables becomes necessary when you detach or loosen the cables because the parking Brake Pedal feels firm even when operating the brake with more than one full pedal stroke despite good hydraulic brake reserve. Begin by cycling the brakes by applying the service brake with 660 nm (150 ft. Lbs.) force and quickly let go then applying the parking brake at 550 nm (125 ft. Lbs.) and releasing. The parking brake needs two more cycles of application and release following the initial procedure. Start the ignition to inspect the "brake" warning indicator light being off while conducting a manual pedal release lever operation to remove slack from the Parking Brake Cable if the indicator light remains on despite visible parking brake release. Check the position of rear caliper parking brake levers while raising the vehicle. Adjust the levers to sit against their stops on caliper housings because rear brake cable binding could exist and requires adjustment. Adjust the Parking Brake Cable at the adjuster to achieve either lever movement away from its stop position then release tension until the lever returns to the stop on its respective caliper packet. Continue this procedure until both caliper levers rest on their stops. The parking brake requires multiple operations to test its adjustment while seeking a solid pedal response with less than complete pedal movement. End the process by making sure both caliper levers rest on their stops after adjustment while also testing the parking brake under graded terrain if possible.
