Handbrake diagram for a Nissan Micra?
I don't have a diagram, but ..... Generally there are cables to the shoes or calipers, these cables go up beneath the vehicle as two separate cables, and behind the exhaust heat shield. Once in the vehicle, they join into one with a separate part they both connect to. A 10mm nut then secures the cable to the handbrake. This nut can be loosened and tightened to adjust the HANDBRAKE AT THE LEVER NOT THE FOOTBRAKE. To properly adjust the footbrake efficiency, completely loosen the nut so it has no effect on the rear brakes, remove the wheel, remove the drum, and adjust the shoes so you can just turn the drum. Refit all and adjust cable to 5-8 clicks.

Release the handbrake, pump the brake pedal a few times to settle the brakes, then apply and release the handbrake a few times. The rear brakes are self adjusting so be careful not to over do it or you will end up locking the your drums. If this does not work, then you need to get the tools out. Jack the rear of the car up, use axle stands for safety. Slacken off the handbrake cable adjuster nut, lift handbrake lever up 4 clicks, tighten handbrake cable adjuster nut until it takes up the slack, check rear drums rotate freely, job done.
