I'm taking the liberty of digging up this topic because I have the same problem, brake cable too short and I would like to know if anyone has managed to loosen it a little to put it back please?

Hello

Did you get an answer for the parking brake and giving it some play when putting the cable back on the caliper. How to give it some play.

Thank you in advance

Good morning,

I re-engaged the parking brake while the cable was removed. As a result, I can no longer put the cable back on because I no longer have enough play. Could you tell me what to do? Kind regards. Thomas
