On my 92 mercury sable the parking brake (e-brake) is dis engaged but the back wheel squeals as if it is still locked up/engaged. i need to know is there a way to manually reset or dis engage this mechanism?
It sounds like you will need to remove the trouble wheel and brakes to get it un stuck. If you have an enclosed cable leading to that side , if could have seized in the cable housing
SOURCE: A4 steering lock does not engage and car won't turn over
The steering locks don't necessarily engage when the key is removed, I always turn the wheel before exiting to engage it. There are several positions that will allow the pin to lock in but if between these, it may seem that it isn't locked.
SOURCE: warn manual hub install 2000 f-250
When you turn the knob to 4x4 the transfer case will engage then it will also activate the vacuum for the hubs. the truck will kick to a lower gear with transfer case engaged but the hubs are not. thats where the manual hubs come in you will have to lock them in order to spin the wheel.

IF U SET DOWN ON THE ROCKER PANEL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AND WITH YOUR RIGHT HAND REACH RIGHT UP TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE PARKING BRAKE ASSEMBLY, THEIR IS A LEVER U CAN FEEL (ITS GOT LIKE A LITTLE HANDEL TO THIS LEVER) AND I BELIEVE U PULL IT TO U, THIS IS THEIR INTENTIONAL TO RELEASE THE BRAKE, I HAVE A 97 AND I HIT THE PEDAL WITH MY FOOT SOMETIMES AND THE LIGHT WILL COME ON SO I HAVE TO RESET IT THIS WAY, I THINK TO MUCH FORCE OR OUT OF ADJUSTED BRAKE CABLE WILL CAUSE ALSO. GOOD LUCY TO U..

sounds like you have a wheel speed sensor going out.. need to have it scanned to see which one is dropping out and making abs kick in..
