Remote release handle Parking brake control Parking brake rear cable and conduit clip (part of 2A635) Parking brake cable bracket Parking brake rear cable and conduit— (LH) Parking brake rear cable and conduit— (RH) Parking brake cable equalizer Front parking brake cable and conduit Front parking brake cable clip The parking brake system is actuated when the parking brake control (2780) is depressed. The parking brake control applies tension to the front parking brake cable and conduit (2853) and parking brake cable equalizer (2A602). The parking brake cable equalizer is coupled to the RH parking brake rear cable and conduit (2A635) and the LH parking brake rear cable and conduit. The respective rear brake assemblies are then applied. The rear wheel brake assembly contains a cable-actuated parking brake assembly. The parking brake releases the rear brakes using a remote release lever incorporated with the parking brake control. If the parking brake control is not fully released, the parking brake signal switch will illuminate the brake warning light. The parking brake signal switch is mounted on the parking brake control. The switch is held in place by a self-tapping screw and aligned with a locater pin. The drum brake parking brake system is self-adjusting, therefore cable tension does not need to be adjusted.

Removal 1. Open engine compartment hood and fit paint protection covers to fenders. Raise and support vehicle. Remove wheels. 2. Release the tension on the parking brake cable by moving the parking brake caliper lever away from the cable end. Remove cable from parking brake cable lever. See Fig. 32 . 3. Remove the parking brake cable from the rear brake caliper. On vehicles with manually adjusted parking brakes, remove the retaining clip. See Fig. 33 . On vehicles with self-adjusting parking brakes, release the tabs on the parking brake cable housing. See Fig. 38 . NOTE: To prevent the loss of brake fluid, apply the brake pedal hold down tool and adjust to hold the brake pedal down 1.6″ (40 mm). Install a bleeder bottle to the bleed nipple and loosen the bleed nipple. 4. Remove union bolt from the rear brake caliper hose and discard sealing washers. See Fig. 61 . Remove brake hose from rear brake caliper. 5. Tighten the bleed nipple and remove the bleeder tube and bottle. Remove and discard the rear brake caliper retaining bolts. See Fig. 62 . Remove the caliper. 6. Clean and inspect all associated parts. Installation CAUTION: Retracting the caliper piston may cause the fluid reservoir to overflow. Remove brake fluid spillage immediately from paint work with clean water. NOTE: The left rear brake caliper piston retracts counterclockwise and the right rear caliper piston retracts clockwise. 1. Using the Brake Caliper Piston Retractor Tool (206-080) and Crankshaft Pulley/Damper Remover (303- 588), fully retract the rear brake caliper piston into the caliper housing. See Fig. 64 . NOTE: Make sure the piston location mark is in the correct position so that the

Some vehicles may exhibit a grabbing condition from the rear brakes during the first few brake applications. The condition only occurs after the vehicle has been parked for several hours. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition. SERVICE PROCEDURE To service, reduce/minimize moisture intrusion into the rear drum brake assemblies by applying Motorcraft® Silicone Gasket and Sealant to the brake backing plate. 1. Place vehicle on hoist and remove the rear wheels. 2. Remove the rear brake drums and replace the rear linings. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 206-02. WARNING Do not breathe dust or use compressed air to blow dust from storage containers or friction components. Remove dust using government-approved techniques. Friction component dust may be a cancer and lung disease hazard. Exposure to potentially hazardous components may occur if dusts are created during repair of friction components, such as brake pads and clutch discs. Exposure may also cause irritation to skin, eyes and respiratory tract, and may cause allergic reactions and/or may lead to other chronic health effects. If irritation persists, seek medical attention or advice. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury. 3. Inspect the rear brake assemblies for damaged, missing and/or improperly seated adjuster plug or parking brake cable. 4. Inspect and clean the lining contact area of the brake drum; machine if necessary. 5. Reinstall the rear brake drums and adjust the lining to drum clearance per WSM, Section 206-02. 6. Thoroughly clean the backside of the rear drum brake backing plate to promote proper adhesion of sealant. 7. Apply Motorcraft(R) Silicone Gasket and Sealant to the backside of the rear drum brake backing plate at the following inter[ace areas (Figure 1): ^ Axle Flange ^ Wheel Cylinder ^ Parking Brake Cable ^ Hold Down Pins NOTE AVOID GETTING SEALANT ON THE BRAKE BLEED SCREW AND BRAKE TUBE NUT. 8. Reinstall the rear wheels and torque lug nuts per Workshop Manual, Section 204-04.

BRAKES – REAR BRAKE NOISE- “MOANING/GROANING” FROM REAR BRAKES WHEN COLD ^ NOISE – “MOANING/GROANING” FROM REAR BRAKES WHEN COLD MERCURY: 1999-2001 COUGAR ISSUE Some vehicles equipped with rear disc brakes may exhibit a “moaning/groaning” noise on initial brake application (cold soak). This may be caused by the rear brake pads vibrating in the caliper. Braking performance is not affected by this condition. ACTION Install revised Rear Disc Brake Service kit. Refer to the following Service Procedure for details. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. Lift and support vehicle. Refer to the appropriate Workshop Manual, Section 100-01. 2. Remove both rear tire assemblies. 3. Remove rear brake pads per instructions in the Workshop Manual, Section 206- 04.4. Remove U-spring from the top of the caliper and replace with L-spring supplied in kit (Figure 1). NOTE THE LEG OF THE L-SPRING FACES THE OUTSIDE OF VEHICLE.5. Remove adhesive backing protection from new pads with C-springs (Figure 2) and install new pads into caliper.

1. Raise front of vehicle and support on stands. 2. Remove front wheels. 3. CAUTION: Remove brake fluid spillage immediately from paint work, with clean water. Loosen brake fluid reservoir-cap. Position a cloth around the reservoir to collect any fluid spillage. 4. Remove brake pads from caliper. 1) Remove ‘R’ clips. 2) Withdraw pins from caliper. 3) Remove anti-rattle spring. 4) Discard brake pads. 5. Clean all mating surfaces and remove brake dust, see WARNING above. 6. Repeat above procedure to remove opposite side brake pads. Installation 1. CAUTION: Make sure grease does not contact brake-pad friction surface or brake disc. To prevent brake squeal apply grease to the shoulders of the brake-pad back plate. Apply a uniform layer of grease to back plate shoulders, making sure the whole shoulder is covered. 2. CAUTION: Make sure the brake pads are fitted with the direction arrow following the direction of wheel rotation. Make sure the brake pads are fitted with the direction arrow following the direction of wheel rotation. 3. CAUTION: Retracting the caliper piston may cause the fluid reservoir to over-flow. Remove brake fluid spillage immediately from paint work, with clean water. CAUTION: Make sure the brake pads are installed to the correct orientation. CAUTION: Make sure the brake pads are fitted with the direction arrow following the direction of wheel rotation. CAUTION: Note condition of pins and ‘R’ clips and replace if necessary.
