To release the emergency brake on a 1992 GMC Jimmy with a broken cable, locate the emergency brake lever inside the vehicle. Use a pair of pliers or a wrench to manually pull the release mechanism or lever, which is usually found near the base of the lever itself. If the lever doesn't release, you may need to access the brake assembly under the vehicle and manually disengage the brake shoes by adjusting the star wheel or using a pry bar. Be cautious and ensure the vehicle is securely supported to avoid any accidents.

How do you release emergency brake on a 2002 GMC Yukon XL with broken cable release?
My 2002 Yukon XL emergency brake cable just shredded this week. The cable is only a couple feet long and connects the release latch to a lever just above the emergency brake pedal (while depressed). The lever can be manually released by hand but be careful to guard your face as it could be in the path of the rising brake pedal. It may require 2 or 3 manual trips of the lever to get the brake pedal released to the highest position.I am still trying to determine where I can buy a replacement cable (other than GMC dealer) and whether I can replace it myself.
