hey there

all of a sudden today, my handbrake stop working, so i jacked up car and look and cables havnt fallen off its still attach to my rear disc
the problem is, i pull my hand brake up and it still rolls, so i tighten the nut and pull on it, and its very firm (feels good)
however it still rolls.. weird? any help or ideas ?

check the brackets which hold the outer part of the cable
theres one on each side
you will know what i mean when you get under the car and look
