E-brake adjustment?

Hey all.....just replaced the seized rear calipers on my Max, and the e-brake doesnt grab as well as it once had....is there a way to adjust it? I looked through the stickies and the haynes manual that I have. thanks in advance.

SEARCH. Its been 11 years since the first 4th gen Maxima, someone has already ask'ed every question possible.

^^ Save it.

Dont mean to be a jerk, im on Vicadin and just got my wisdom's pulled out.


Anyway, take off the center console piece thats in between the passenger and driver seat. You'll see a nut under the E-brake that is connected to a steel braided cable. Tighten that nut to desired amount. I dont remember the size.

*Note*
If your e-brake was working fine before you changed brakes, then something must have gone wrong in the installation. Double check everything to be safe.
