Rear passenger brake seizing

[LewisH]

Hi guys,

my rear passenger brake sticks.... But ive also noticed that where the handbrake cables go from the handbrake its self, that silver bit is on the wonk, So one is being pulled tigher then the other so to speak ? Ill get a picture of it tomorrow to show what i mean etc. But anyone got any idea at all of what it could be ?

sticky caliper will do that as it doesn't let the cable return to its correct position.

Hmm, might take the caliper off, pads out and get my cousins rewind tool on it. See if i can un-stick it a bit.

The rear pistons are easy to wind back with a large flat head screwdriver

try pulling the little lever on the caliper where the handbrake cable goes with the hand brake off to see if you can get it to return to its correct position then put the handbrake back on and back off again. Repeat that a few times, might be just enough to free something up.
