Have just had to spend £60 getting my O/S caliper freed off.

I have been using the EHB a whole lot more than previously but it obviously didn't like being parked up for 7 days. At first operation the dash lit up like a Christmas tree and the caliper stuck open (which was lucky!). N/S worked fine.
Despite my cycling through on/off numerous times, spraying a hose on it whilst doing so and giving it a couple of 'love taps' with a rubber mallet, it wouldn't work.

Anyway local mechanic plugged the car in and cycled the pistons in and out as though the pads had been replaced, I didn't work at first so he stripped it down apparently (whatever that means), anyway all fine now.
