The brake warning light probably has nothing to do with your parking brake. What makes you think thats what the light is for?

Correct me someone who knows more, if I am wrong

When parking brake pedal goes down to certain point, brake warning light comes on. If i lift parking brake pedal slightly move upward, brake warning light goes off.
My parking brake pedal does not return to completely up position because return spring of pedal is warn out, I believe.

So it may not be cable adjustment, just simply pedal return spring.
