HI guys,
It's been a while since I have posted on here. I am returning from a very long military deployment. Anyways, My E9 has been sitting in my garage the past 7 months and a few days ago I went to start her up. I was worried she wasn't going to start up but after a few turns she came right to life! I left her running for a few minutes and waited for the revs to come down and they did. But when I released the E-break the brakes did not disengage, the e-brake handle goes up and down but the rear brakes do not disengage. I thought if this is all that broke after sitting for almost 7 months not bad!
So, where or how do I check if my E-brake is disengaging properly? and if it is what do I check with the brakes?
Note: I am not a mechanic. I can do some work if I have the tools.
