Emergency Brake - Cable/Dash
1990 Chevrolet 1500 2WD 4.3 manual transmission.
How to turn off or release the emergency brake. Need instructions.
Problem: The pull release inside cab on dash. I pulled the release and the whole piece of plastic came out including about 15 inches of thin metal cable. Frayed end. I do not see the other end of broken cable. The emergency brake is on.
How do I release the emergency brake? Any suggestions?
To summarize, I went to release the emergency brake and the whole handle/plastic pull came out from dash - which included about 15 inches of thin metal wire. I have no idea how to release the emergency brake now.

its cool...get down on the floor,and look at the mechanism..you'll see the 'lever' that the cable pulls on...just flip it forward with your finger and she'll release.
a new release handle should be about 15 bucks
