You will need to remove the rear rotors in order to access the parking brake adjustment. Chances are the parking brakes are completely worn down, and the rotors will need to be replaced. The 2000-2001 Tahoes are notorious for sticking parking brakes. The Tahoe utilizes a drum style brake pad located inside the hat of the rear rotors. There is a fairly tight tolerance between the parking brake and the drum portion of the inside of the rotor. There is a cogged nut that can be spun to adjust the diameter of the parking brake assembly. The following is likely the cause of premature parking brake failure. The driver side has a lever located on the inner part of the brake assembly. On the driver side the lever has a protrusion that can get stuck against the back of the brake assembly when actuated. The protrusion serves no purpose, and there is a Chevy TSB that recommends grinding it off.
The parking brake wire is located under the center console. Around the parking brake there is a wire that routes to handbreak, it is normally green.
You may be low on brake fluid or the parking brake linkage needs adjusting.
Chev dealers have a manual with that exact info in -down to the dollar. You need to ask one of them, sorry.
I installed a new e.brake shoes on a 2000 Chevy silverado 1500 4x4. Now I don't know how to adjust the cables so the brake works. How or where is the adjustment on the cables? If it's like my 2003 the adjustment is inside the hub. There's an adjustment wheel just like the old fashion star adjustment on drum brakes. I don't know if they are the same though?
Pull the lever of your parking brake up a few clicks. Look inside, under the lever and you will see a length of threaded metal cable with a nut attatched. Use a deep 10mm socket and tighten cable to desired taughtness.
