check the flex line going into the brakes. sometimes they can get pinched and will not alow the brake pressure to release once you let off the pedal. not sure if they are the same setup similiar to my honda but that's what happened to it and pinched line was the cause. As for your ebrake? may not give any tension feedback because brakes are already applied and the cable won't release? just a guess..
