My pedal is not going back enough to put the parking break lamp off. Were is the right place to adjust the cable?

No. I use my left foot to pull the pedal up so it does.

The cable adjustment is under the car about in the middle.

You mean were the cable split to each wheel? If I tighten the both rear cables, the front cable losens?

You just loosen the front cable. While down there make sure there is no binding of the mechanism.

I just put some WD40 on the adjustment. That's enough. :)
