[DeTomaso] parking brakes

[Ken Green]

Scott at SACC (http://www.saccrestorations.net/) was selling an electric parking brake actuator kit for Panteras.  I'm not sure if it is currently available, so you'd have to ask Scott.

  It is more likely a linear actuator driven by a motor. A solenoid would
  not be good as it would need to draw current for the whole time the
  brakes are on. You can probably hear the motor whine when you flip the
  switch (or whatever) and then it goes silent when the brakes are
  on/off. Where there's legislation requiring a parking brake it's
  usually also a requirement that it's mechanically actuated, hydraulics
  are not allowed.

  I confess I don't know if OEM electric parking brake systems work by
  pressurizing the fluid in the line, or if they are a simple mechanical
  'arm'
  that
  is pulling on a mechanical parking brake? Does anybody know that for
  sure?
  ****Audis use a mechanical parking brake actuated by a solenoid - the
  second
  case. They do not pressurize the fluid in the line. They have some
  electronics to ease the brake on if you are moving, but actuating it at
  any
  speed locks up your brakes. They are either on or off.
