I can release parking brake with button, but the emergency brake won't release.
Locks rear wheels to barely tur. Ideas please? |

If the rear rotors were just replaced then likely the rear venting clearance was not set correctly.
Another common failure after brake work in the flex hoses to each suspension. They get old and collapse internally and can hold brake fluid under pressure in the caliper. Jim |
