Arrow hanging emergency cables

Hi, We had much snow here, 25 inches, a couple of days ago, pulled car into drive, ice froze up undercarriage, tried to back up and emg cables pulled off. Now emg brake is stuck full on. Would most appreciate any methods to release them. Thanks in advance

Re: hanging emergency cables

Is the cable jammed somewhere, possibly from ice? What year Seville is it?

Re: hanging emergency cables

They are vacuum operated. There should be a manual release under the dash, near where the pedal is.
