E-Brake Help

hey guys...
does anyone know if you can adjust the ebrake cable. i have to push the pedal to the floor and it still doesnt catch. i just put 4 rotors and pads on, but didnt do the parking pad...they didnt look bad. on other fords i have owned, there was an adjustment where the cable splits, but the X doesnt look like there is one there. i would like to get it fixed if possible. thanks alot in advance

You can adjust them at the wheel just like drum brakes of old. Are you familiar with how to do that? (Turn the star wheel with a screwdriver??)

Thanks but you could also say that I should get a life.
