Dear sasjzl,

Hope you're well. In the center console, there is a storage bin. In the floor of the storage bin, there's a rectangular panel. It should have a small slot, into which the tip of a small, flat-blade screwdriver can be inserted. Gently pry-up the panel. You should see two screws (T-20, if I recall correctly).

When those screws have been removed, the center console can be lifted enough to allow access to the wiring harness, that goes to the ashtray on the rear-facing side of the center console.

If you detach the connectors from the light above the ashtray, you should be able to lift the console enough to expose the emergency brake adjuster, which is black plastic, and has an hexagonal cross-section.

Turning the hexagonal adjuster removes slack from the emergency brake cable. I do not recall the direction, in which to go, to tighten (remove slack from) the emergency brake cable. I'm sure you'll figure out the correct direction pretty quickly.

Hope this helps.

Yours faithfully,

Spook
