I just got done installing my Matco parking brake that has the same
on/off action (may be the same parking brake provided by Van's) in that
when the brake module is installed in a normal configuration, pulling on
a directly connected wire cable would release the brake, but that's
undesirable. If you accidently hit it with your knee and push it in,
you'll block hydraulic flow to the brake.
The solution: turn it around to just about fully upside down. That
reverses the lever action. Now, to set the brake, pull on the cable, to
release, push...just the way it should be. The parking brake doesn't
care that its upside down.
