My rear brake is always engaged
Hello, my rear brake has been sticking for a week now. I took it apart today and lubed the sliding pins but it did not help, while doing so I noticed when I apply parking brake and then let go the disc is impossible to move so there might be something wrong with the parking brake, there is this spring that is NOT present at the other side
I think it might be mounted incorrectly, it actually snapped to a different position when I was inspecting it ( the video is before it changed position and the photos are after).
Please verify the mounting and give me a tip what to do. Just cut it off, since the other side never had issues or try to mount correctly if it isn't
