Sounds like a quick adjustment is in your future! Mine had a little slack and would move easily even if just bumped, but never enough to cause the brake light to come on. After adjustment, that slack is gone, handle is firm from the very first part of movement, and only about 4-5 clicks of the handle before set and tight.Hey gang, I checked how many 'clicks' on my parking brake yesterday, and the first thing I noticed is the lever had play. From the fully seated position, I could pull the lever up like about an inch (from the push-button), with basically zero resistance, so it'd stay up if left there. In other words, the spring doesn't push the lever all the way down. If I push it all the way down, it stays there. But if I lift it an inch or so, it stays there too. No brake light at that point. If I push it a hair past that one inch, then the dash light turns on. And if released, the lever goes back to the prior position, and light turns off... but it doesn't go all the way down (although I always push it all the way down myself). IS THAT PLAY NORMAL??? Just curious. Everything seems to be working fine, so probably normal, but let's hear from other owners .
By the way, my parking brake can easily do 5 clicks flat, without much effort. Maybe it needs adjustment. Will check it one of these days.
