so i was parking today, and when i went to pull the emergency brake up i hear this loud popping and the e-brake doesn't work anymore...is this a snapped cable (there is no tension while pulling it up)
also, my brakes have been squeaking as of late, would this have caused it to have snapped?
any help would be appreciated

so the next morning when i parked for work i set the brake like nothing had ever happened and it worked fine...talked to a friend and he said his brake has popped quite a few times really loud like that and that his has worked fine also, so if may just be something that's common and there's nothing wrong with the brake itself...which is good because i didnt see anything broken or hanging

mine has done the same thing a few times, and i can't find anything wrong with it either.
my only guess is that its wearing out. i say that because i have to pull the lever all the way to the top of the travel to hold the car.
