handbrake cable not releasing once handbrakes off
fitted my rear disc set up and it seems that when i pull the handbrake up it grabs the discs fine, but when i put the handbrake back down it doesnt want to let go of the discs?
i can push the cable pull thing on the calipers back down by hand and that releases them,
Theyre not seized and the cable moves freely in the sleeve.
all i can think is that ive fitted the handbrake adjuster incorrectly in the mounting point under the car and that the whole sleeve is moving when i release the handbrake, instead of just the cable inside the sleeve.
hope this makes sense! any advice or ideally a pic of the underside of a fez would be great.
going for mot tomorrow so need this sorted!
