frog levers i cant get them to work again after losening

Hi. I recently got back from a flight with my bike so I had to loosen the front brake cable to twist the handlebars into box position.

Now I tried putting them back on and i cant get them to work. Basically my problem is if I put them on loose the cable is too loose to pull the brake pads up. If I put them on tight, the cable kinda scrunches in the middle against the 2 cable seperator and still doesnt pull the pads up. Anyone know what I mean? got a solution?

its ok i found out what I was doing wrong. I was supposed to clip the top part into the fixed place on the bar. I had both cables moving around freely. Probably makes little sense
