My ebrake dosn’t work!

I tightened it but it still won’t grab at all?

Pistons arn’t seized and pads are new.

Ideas?

im pretty sure it has a parking shoe, your rear rotor sits over them they need to be adjusted.

take off the wheel, there is hole in the rotor that should have a rubber plug in it.  
then take out the plug and line it up with the adjuster and adjust, all you need is a screwdriver to adjust the shoes.
