Yep, sounds like you snapped a cable. Search to find out how to fix it.

So based on your screen name, and your reference to your male member in your post, are you saying you're a dick?

do i have to take off the whole center console to replace this? Or can i just take off the E-brake boot. God, i hate to do this cause unbolting my exhaust for the first time since the factory did it is gonna be a BIG pain.

I have replaced 2 brake handles. You have to take off the center console. I think the exhaust has to be dropped too. It was so long ago I can't remember put I think the exhaust is in the way of getting to the end of the cable on the handle assembly.

Taking off my Center Console is a [censored] x100 cause i have O/D on my car and getting the gear selector off without cutting the wires is impossible. Friggen stupid design.

Rather that starting another thread....
Anyone know how to adjust the tension on the e-brake? I thought there would just be a screw under the console but there isn't. Anyone know how to conquer this? I'd love to use my e-brake again...
