Parking brake lever issue!!!

Hi.

The parking brake lever is getting loose now. If the lever was pulled less than 2/3 up, it is playing without any forces even though the brake light comes on.
Up to the last position it has some force to hold wheels. How to fix it?

Thanks.

he obviously does not know what to do and since you are the first one to post, try being productive and not condesending, so instead of a stupid 2 word answer in your post point him in the right direction for the answer to his question.

I believe telling someone the right course of action to take is being productive, and I hardly consider the posts I made condescending.

Search also would've given him this information.
jesus!! do you think everyone has a FSM laying around?
