2016 F-53 Motorhome Chassis and F-59 Commercial Stripped Chassis – New Foot Actuated Park Brake System
2016 F-53 Motorhome Chassis and F-59 Commercial Stripped Chassis utilize a new foot actuated park brake system design.
When brake cables in the foot actuated system need to be disconnected or serviced, the park brake control must have the cable tension released.
The following symptoms may occur if the Workshop Manual (WSM) Parking Brake Cable Tension Release procedure is not followed:
- The park brake may not fully apply with the park brake pedal fully depressed
- The park brake may not release completely
- The red brake warning indicator maybe illuminated with the park brake not applied
Refer to WSM, Section 206-05 for the Parking Brake Diagnosis and Testing and for the Parking Brake Cable Tension Release procedure.
