Why is it that something goes wrong with my brakes every winter when its bleedin freezing!!

This morning the parking brake was locked on after I had released the brake handle, the zed wouldn't reverse so I inched forward and backwards until it was free but now the handbrake pulls up all the way (was 6 clicks) and is just about holding.

Anyone had this or got any thoughts? Its going to be a couple of weeks before I can get it on axle stands to have a look but if I need some parts I would like to be prepared.......I know its gonna be freezing when I investigate, its sods law!

Sounds like one of your bowden cables may have snapped. If that isn't the case, then its adjusted at the wheels.
I believe it's done without removing the wheels also. Look here.....
