Did the handle get stuck?

Hopefully, it's the rear cable. That's relatively easy to get to and it has a tendency to rust and get grit loaded in it.

Good Luck.

Yup probably the cable getting stuck in the housing. If you soak it good with WD40 or even better PB Blaster then give it some time to soak in if may free up on its own. Im not sure though if the Ebrake cable has a sealed housing or not. If its a metal wound housing then its a good chance the penatrant will soak right in and free it up.
