The eBrake lever hasn’t been operating smoothly when releasing. At the firewall where the cables attach to the mechanism there is a short spring. It was not attached at the rear end; where does the spring attach ?

There should be a metal tab with a hole in it attached to the bulkhead between
the cables.
I recall it as horizontal but your spring which is correct says vertical.
Anyone ?

Got it. The upholstery shop was working in that area. They disconnected the spring and put a screw into that hole. The decree was holding the cover plate at the fire wall end.

One other question, should there be a bolt securing the eBrake lever to the chassis. Right now it looks like it's riding on a busing and feels kinda wobbly.
Didn't pull the seat yet, but can tomorrow...
