do you have to pull the ebrake really high for it to work, or no ebrake at all?

Then either you have to tighten alot or your cable is messed up. The rear brakes work right?

I had a problem like that, but I had to pull it up ALL the way to get very little breaking. Just tightened the cable and it was fixed.
