Here Are 4 Signs That Your Handbrake Is Failing The parking brake cable is the cable that is used to engage the parking brakes on numerous vehicles. It's normally a steel braided cable covered in a protective sheath that's used to activate the vehicle's parking brakes mechanically. The cable pushes on the calipers or brake drums when the parking brake lever or pedal is depressed, engaging the vehicle's parking brake. When stopped or stationary, the parking brake is utilised to keep the vehicle from rolling. This feature is particularly useful while parking or halting on inclines or hills, where a car is more likely to roll and cause an accident. This is why it is checked during a MOT testing service, and if it is found to be defective, it will result in a MOT test failure.
