When my 1996 was less than a year old the parking brake applicator was replaced under warranty because it would not apply the parking brake. I thought a lot of my new LT4 and did not want the Chevy technicians driving my LT4 or working on it, so I changed out the parking brake applicator in the Chevy's parking lot and the service manager inspected it.
Later the applicator was not applying the application of raising the handle. Fixed it today. The locking application piece was observed to be in slow motion in it's movement. Sprayed some lubricant on the pivot connection and it began to move freely, now catches application of parking brake 100%.
Removing/installing the two screws retaining the parking brake cover was the most difficult encounter for me. Access to the two screws could be one's challenge.
