Default LR Focus handbrake adjustment??

Hi,

I had my rear pads replaced today and the place that did it couldn't find how & where to adjust the handbrake. That will teach me to get a tyre shop to fix my brakes!

Can someone please explain to me how I can do this.

Cheers,

MK

Thanks for that info - I had already seen that link. I think they people who did my brakes stuffed something up with the handbrake linkage, as this (interior) adjustment is already about at its limit.

I read somewhere else that there is a part where the handbrake cable splits to each wheel that can get twisted / looped / loosened during brake work.

Thanks,

MK
