My first guess would be to check the spring and the cable connection at the rear tire on the brakes. If that didn't go back together correctly I can see that causing the PB to fail to function.

Google Spyder rt parking brake adjustment and there is a video to view. Should be able to figure it out from there.

Back up..!!
Retrace your steps. Something did not get put back right. There is a cable that disconnects ratger easily. If you check the video mentioned above you will find it..have your hubby get the shop manual fir future work. Makes things go much better...!!

I did it too. If you bump the e brake assembly while the brake is off, like when messing with the rear tire, it will pop the cable off the actuator under the upper right body panel. I took off the body panel to fix it and tried to make it happen again after It was put back on. Yup, does it every time. There is a thread here that talks about using a small tye wrap to hold it on the pulley. Dumb design. Should have been a keeper molded into the pulley.
