2015 triglide parking brake wont set

[dwalt68]

Hey guys got out today and parking brake wont lock in haven't crawled under yet was wondering if anyone had any ideas before I just start playing pin the tail on the Harley. Ok second question went out and looked its something to do with spring that activates leaver to lock in doesn't look broke and lever that locks it in is fine but spring not doing its job. If anyone out there that has this brake can you get a couple pics top and bottom of spring set would really help to check positioning I don't see anything obvious any help would be appreciated.

Everything is fine except lever not locking in can do it by hand brakes are fine spring looks ok not broken but not sure on positioning

Do a search on this web sit & you will find numerous threads on the HD trike parking brake, including pictures.

No something is wrong with spring, lever does not ride gear on parking brake to lock in, positive it is a spring problem just hoping to get pics of top and bottom of spring so i can see how its supposed to be sitting.

A couple times on my '14 and once on my '19 the parking brake would not engage.

First thing I did was spray all the mechanisms under the floorboard with Silicone lubricant. No further intervention was needed.

Hope it's that easy for you.
