Hi Guys, In the middle of changing my parking brake got the old one out and in the middle of putting the new one in, the only problem is when I get back to the Caliper there is no way to fit the cable through the little hole, Am I being dumb does it pop out or something?

Please help

Err. What are you doing.. changing the cable??

Normally thete is a plastic collar on the end of the cable.. that sits into the brake backplate.


Same as the one you took out ;)


If in doubt....
. Look at the opposite rear brakes.. !!


If you are struggling with the cable nipple.. it often sits on the WRONG SIDE of the operating lever : torque arm

And you just slip the cable through the slot.. ;)


Ive not done disc rears on a FIAT for 20 years..
