Winston, you will have to take it in and have scanned for fault codes to determine why Traction Control is doing this, may ba faulty sensor or wheel bearing.
Remove the wheel and have someone depress the e-brake while observing cable operation. The cable should pull the brake arm on the caliper and release the arm when the e-brake pedal is released.
On most vehicles you just apply the e-brake then disengage it repete over and over until you start to feel resistance then set the brake until it feels right and try it out. Some vehicles though you just need to roll backwards slowly then try to set the e-brake, repete until it feels right. Good luck.
These are usually located on the front of the brake pedal post. The slightest pressure on the pedal causes this switch to trigger your brake lights. You'll have to get underneath the dash and look up. It's not comfortable to be under there, but should only take you a minute or two to locate it. With everything quiet you should be able to depress the pedal slightly and hear the switch clicking. That might help you locate it quicker. Good luck!
No fuse for the brake lights. It they short out the filament inside the bulb that lights up will blow just like a fuse would. If you replaced a bulb and it blew out you have a short somewhere in that circuit. If the bulb simply doesn't light up you need to adjust the brake lamp switch or replace it. That switch is located by the brake pedal you put your foot on to brake
Most parking brakes are adjusted by accessing the cable under the vehicle -- there should be some bolts which will require two wrenches to turn -- there will be an adjustment for each wheel.
The cable going to that wheel may be sticking where it goes into the wheel assembly.
Lubricating all components of the emergency brakes system (which you can access) would be agood idea -- inside and outside vehicle.
