Parking brake is shot!

I have an 03 5AT Sedan, and the foot pedal parking brake provides no resistance when pressed in all the way. I found the part of the FSM that says how to adjust it, but I'm not entirely sure what it's all talking about. I found a picture writeup here on the forum, but none of the pictures work. And the only other writeup I found didn't have pictures and was for an 06 6MT with the hand brake. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

did this a year ago, was pretty simple if i remember right. Take off back wheels, there is a rubber plug on the hub, take that stopper out, you should see the edge of a cog wheel. Look at FSM to see which direction tightens, you should be able to feel resistance in pedal as you click the wheel a certain direction. Click the opposite side wheel the same amount. If that doesn't solve you issue, you can tighten the pedal up front. If neither works, you probably need new pads (for e brake).

Since your G is "that" old I'd begin buy buying a parking brake pad from Nissan, then adjust should be good....Gary
