On my 1990 4runner my e brake won't work. It's not broken it just needs to be tighten up how would I do this?

 

Put it in reverse and keep pulling it until your truck stops.

 

Ok can you explain how that will help it or fix it?

 

Google's a pretty cool site - check it out sometime ;-)

Awesome I hope this works thanks guys!!! And google what is this google you speak of? Lol

 

If it doesn't work, you will need to adjust the rears through the access hole below the bleeder valve. Jack the tire off the ground for the wheel you are working on. You'll make the screwdriver turn the adjustment knob until you feel the slightest drag on the drum. Repeat for other side. After you are done, do the emergency brake- reverse trick.

 

i cant post my own threads yet so, i have a 91 toyota pickup and my parking brake light is always on but it works fine. It was parked a few months ago because the clutch was out and when i finally moved it i had to break the brakes free and ever since the light has stayed on but im not leakin break fluid anywhere. any ideas??

 

You can create threads just not in the classifieds. There might of been some some maintenance running or something if you tryed else where.. Anyways..

make sure the cap is clean and tight on the res', there is proper fluid levels. Then fiddle with the switch, mine is a little finicky and sometimes I have to bang it into the dash to get it to shut off.
