Re: E brake cable question

If your cable is not releasing all the way there are adjusters on the cable so set the play/tension. In the picture on the thread that would be the #7 location. If you loosen the nuts there this will give the cable some slack. On my truck it is a little different and there is a single nut adjuster just below the drivers door.
