Hand Break Button Issue

[Dean Oldfield]

Any one had there button remain depressed in their handbreak lever? I guess a dealer fix.

If you are unable to release the handbrake and drive safely, then I would give vw breakdown a call and see if they can fix it. If not then they could get you van to the dealers.
I used to drive Sherpa vans back in the day and some times the handle would unscrew and cover the button, I assume this is not the case in the photo?

Just check that the plastic cover hasn't slipped up the handbrake lever giving the illusion that the button is stuck in.
Get hold of the grey plastic cover and shove it down.

Ok it is still under warrenty , but if it was on mine i would take off just the plastic trim and check it out .
if it happens again you need to go to the dealer

Thanks, all good ideas will try later. The handbreak works fine and the button presses ok so that maybe the cause.
