  1. On my 2001 GMC Yukon XL 2500 6.0L 4wd I'm getting a flashing brake system warning light and the chime activates when the vehicle is moving. Also, the Automatic Headlamp System appears to be disabled. I suspect a faulty parking brake light switch. I was having an issue with the parking brake warning light not going out after releasing the parking brake about six weeks ago. The solution then was to reapply the parking brake and then release one or two times. That solution is not working now, and the Automatic Headlamp System, which has a connection to the parking brake, is not working or disabled. To turn on the headlamps, I've got to use the manual switch. The problem must be in the parking brake light system. I'm not certain if it's just a switch or a relay and/or fuse somewhere. The brake fluid level is midway between the max and min level marks. The ABS warning light is not an issue here. Does anyone have experience with this problem, and know the solution or troubleshooting procedure to fix this problem? Regards
  2. I went to get my truck inspected and it failed due to the parking brake. I brought it home and tried to adjust it but it still wouldn't hold. The pads were looking a little rusty and the passenger side would stick. (coudln't take off the rotor after I released the parking brake) I replaced the parking brake pads on both sides, along with the hardware. I adjusted the adjuster until I could just barely get the rotor on. Put it all back together and it still won't hold. When I first started it wouldn't hold the truck on a hill in neutral. Now it will hold it in neutral but if you put it in gear it starts rolling with ease. So what else could it be? The pedal goes all the way to the floor easily. Is there a such thing as a loose cable? Is there a way to adjust the cable? Or maybe even the pedal? Maybe I need to replace the cable? Thanks in advance for any information. BTW this is a 2004 2500HD with the two part parking brake pads.
  3. Hey folks, first time posting here and maybe it’s a common thing. I’ve searched google and YouTube for days, replaced parts, and done the troubleshooting I know to do. So here it is, bear in mind, im no auto mechanic. I’m a jet mechanic/toolmaker. Lol my front pass brake locked up Friday, and the abs/parking brake light has been on since the dealer I got the truck from replaced the parking brake cable. I don’t hear a roaring, so I don’t feel like it’s a hub, but I do have some bouncing on the front end which leads me to think it may be an axel, which I still have to get looked at. parking brake and abs lights come on after a few seconds of driving, I hear brakes grinding, and I just replaced both front rotors, pads, and passenger caliper and abs sensor after it locked up; since it melted the abs sensor cable. brakes are bled properly and working, but they aren’t fully releasing. I’ve checked fluid, it’s not overfilled. Driver hub was previously replaced but not passenger for some reason. I considered ordering a hub for the passenger side just for that. Rotors are 305mm and the pads I installed are ceramic from brake best. Yes, the rotors get hot after a short drive, like too hot to touch. I’d rather not have these things lock up on me again. The only thing left I know to check are the piston in the master cylinder, or the passenger hub. Any ideas? If I’ve missed good reference material or prior posts please feel free to comment with a link and a nice “check here dumbass.” Lol thanks in advance.
  4. The foot actuated parking brake on my 2013 Yukon will not release no matter how far down I push it. The problem started recently and is getting worse. The rear shoes are thick. The cables are free and not rusted. I adjusted the parking brake cable. Still a problem. I strongly suspect the parking brake assembly up under the dash. My preference would be to repair it followed by installing a new assembly. I would appreciate any help suspicion and with fixing the problem. Thanks!
  5. Background - Pushing the parking brake pedal to the floor just barely engages the parking brake. Need to either adjust or replace or both. Two questions I have - 1) Can the parking brake on the 2014 Silverado be adjusted? 2) Are only the shoes needing to be replaced or is there a full hardware kit I need to find as well? The parts diagram on gmparts.com only has the shoes listed as part of the rear brake assembly. Do yall have a video link for the how-to onthe adjustment and/or replacement?
  6. I have just took out my instrument cluster to replace my odometer gear. When I put everything back in I noticed that my parking brake light keeps on flashing when it is not even engaged. This only started happening after I removed and replaced the cluster. Any help would be must appreciated, thanks!
