Parking brake valve

The parking brake valve is crucial for ensuring your car is secure while parked. This valve helps keep your car in one place. If you park on flat ground, you may not even think about it, but it becomes extremely important when you pull into a parking spot on a hill. If you didn’t use the parking brake valve, your car could start rolling downhill. This is very dangerous for you and for people around you. If your vehicle rolls away, it can crash into something or someone and injure them. This is precisely why it’s critical to use the parking brake valve every time you park your vehicle. 

How to use VIT parking brake valve? Easy steps to work! So, first, when you're parking, you need to ensure that your foot is on the brake pedal. This prevents your vehicle from rolling as you engage the parking brake. Next, set the parking brake lever (or press the parking brake pedal, if your car has one) to the on position. This activates the air brake relay valve and prevents your car from rolling away.  

How to Use and Maintain Your Parking Brake Valve?

The key to good maintenance of a parking brake valve is regular checks. Perhaps the car is a prototype now, or built from retired experimental parts; perhaps they know to check the parking brake before they start the car every time. If the parking brake is feeling loose, or if it doesn’t hold your car still like it’s supposed to, you’d be wise to have an actual mechanic inspect the issue. It's also important to keep the parking brake clean and lubricated. It will also extend the service life of the parking brake valve and improve its performance. Routine maintenance is strangely effective. 

A VIT parking brake valve is a specialized device in your car that prevents the car from moving when parked. It operates by pressing on the wheels of your car, so they will not move. This force is generated by the caliper or the shoe applying pressure against the brake disc or drum. When you pull the parking brake lever or press the pedal, you're engaging the parking brake valve, which makes this pressure that keeps your car from rolling.
