F'in A. I drove off from my house, and the rear drivers side caliper was stuck , like the e-brake was on, but it was not. What should I look at first? I disconnected the e-brake cable on the drivers side, and both rear wheel rotate in gear fine. Can the cable get bound up in the tunnel somehow? pain30.gif

This happened to me a while back on the Bumblebee...

IIRC, the problem was that the cable had rusted in place in the tube. But you drive your car pretty often right? That shouldn't be the case. Still... shoot some WD-40 or your favorite penetrant up into the tube and maybe you can work it loose.

Or maybe I've confused this problem with something else. rolleyes.gif I've had a couple of glasses of wine. biggrin.gif
