Thank you for helping me understand what went wrong where I realize it's
hard for you to help given the little information I know about it.

On this vehicle, braking in referse does not adjust the rear brakes.
The continual adjustment of the rear brakes is only by the parking brake.

It's a 2002 Toyota Tacoma.

Mainly I ass-u-med that the parking brake would adjust the brake shoes,
since that's what it does every day.

What I mostly want to understand is WHY the parking brake adjustment didn't
work.

My main assumption was that the parking brake adjustment is the same as the
manual star adjustment.

If that's correct, then I don't see how the parking brake adjustment is any
different than twisting the star adjuster, but it apparently is (somehow).

That's my main confusion which I hope someone can help me better
understand.
