Question about E-Brake - can you rotate the handle 180 degrees?

Hello all. Today i was playing around with my e-brake handle and i noticed that i can rotate it 180 degrees. Is this normal? My e-brake works fine even though i was able to rotate it. Can anyone else's E-brake do this? Is this normal? I dont know the logic between the e-brake handle and the cable. Thanks.

 

is this normal? seems to not affect anything but just wondering if its bad that my e-brake handle cant rotate 180 degrees.

 

Its normal.

 

Will anything get damaged by rotating it. I was messing around with it and it rotated 180 degrees and Im not sure if I turned it back to its original position. Will this damage anything? thanks

 

No, nothing will get damaged.
If you didn't put it back the way it was your E-brake won't release, so it your E-brake won't release just flip the handle.

The handle just spins on the rod, and there's a notch on one side the the little lever slips into when you pull on the lever in the hook of the Ebrake handle.

 

ok cool. good info. i was worried for a bit. i dont even know why i started messing with it to begine with. thanks

 

No problem, I enjoy flipping it around when I'm bored in a parking lot.
