Caliper or brake cable?

[JaeTea]

Before I set my car on fire... :axe:

I've been having issues with my ebrake forever now.

Last week I changed all the rotors and pads.

Now the god damn parking brake only locks up the passenger side tire. The drivers side will finally lock up after I give about 8-10 good long ebrake pulls. Before that its useless. :wtf:

The calipers were replaced (with NEW units) about 8 months ago because the drivers side one didn't lock when the ebrake was engaged.

Anyone have ANY clue what I should look for now? Another Bad caliper? Messed up ebrake cable?

is there anyway to adjust the cable?? I have never looked at the assembly on the 240, but on my brothers integra it has an adjustment on each side in the back.

I'm waaaaaaaay past fucking around with the ebrake adjustment.

^^he's probably right. Check the ebrake 'spring' in the back and make sure there is no extra slack on either side of the cable. If thats not the problem then pull one rear caliper at a time off the rotor and have a friend pull the ebrake and make sure the piston pushes out...if none of this works......proceed to the original plan of setting the car on fire........- Rob
