One of the reasons why the handbrake does not return is that the return spring is damaged, and this spring plays the role of causing the brake to rebound back into place. If the spring is damaged, we can consider replacing it with a new return spring. The new return spring provides enough force to return the brakes to their original position.
Another possible cause is a malfunctioning brake cable
After long-term use, the brake cable may wear or break. When the brake line is not working properly, the handbrake cannot rebound. In this case, we need to replace the brake cable immediately. The new brake line after replacement will ensure the normal operation of the brakes.
Missing brake fluid can also cause the handbrake to not return
If the brake system lacks enough brake fluid, the resistance to brake rebound will increase, resulting in the handbrake not returning automatically. To solve this problem, we need to add enough brake fluid in time. Make sure that there is enough oil in the braking system so that the handbrake can rebound quickly.
Finally, one of the reasons why the handbrake does not return is that the angle of the power-off switch is not adjusted properly. If the angle between the power-off switch and the rebound steel plate is not perpendicular, it will also cause the handbrake to fail to return. In this case, if you are not familiar with how to adjust, it is recommended to push the electric vehicle to the maintenance station and ask a professional maintenance master to adjust.
