Can anyone point me to any info on how these work? Simply put, mine comprises of a threaded rod forked at both ends with a rachet & pawl assembly. I read differing accounts as how to get them to actuate. Some say the hand brake does it & if you rarely use it the brakes won't self adjust. Others say that they only adjust when braking while in reverse. Another account says you just pump the brake pedal.
So, what's the story? How can I be sure they're both working OK? ('cause I have a suspicion one isn't)
