e-brake trouble? Options

[celicaboston1983]

hey guys recently had my one of my e-brake cable changed and now when i pull my hand brakes I only get three clicks and its tight but the problem is when I let go of my brake pedals the car shifts alittle and then it stops sometimes it makes a weird noise. Any thoughts guys thanks in advance.

ok real easy - should take 10 minutes or so.

first, pop off the shifter surround. Then take the center console off - 2 screws (arrows), 2 bolts in the console compartment, then lift it out with the ebrake up. Make sure you unplug the light to the ashtray before you take the console out.



then it will look like this



connected to the passenger side of the ebrake handle there is a bolt with 2 nuts on it (arrow)



take the top one off (10mm) and loosen the other one (10mm also), then pull the ebarke up to see if you like how far up it goes. The more you loosen it, the higher it will go up. When you have it at the acceptable height, put the top nut back on and tighten it to the other.

reassemble and you are done. Questions ?
