um i dont think tht will work because the the light turns on when the handle is pulled jsut tighten it to where it pulls 1/4 way up.

are ur brake shoes worn out? maybe u need to replace ur brake shoes and if still good, a longer way would be to adjust them from inside the drums, thats if u have drum brakes.....if ur e-brake came lose, when was last time u change brake shoes? before u adjust the cable for the e-brake u should check ur brake shoes make sure they not worn out- unless u know for sure they still good..

Just take off the center console and tighten the nut behind the bracket that holds the ends of both brake cables. It's not rocket science, noob. Go do it and then continue to drive like a jackass and get yourself killed
