Lots of threads in here about e-brakes being "frozen", but my symptoms are a little different so just wanted to do a sanity check before just getting new cable. Currently the e-brakes are not dragging, but if I set the e-brakes they don't release. When this happened previously I was able to loosen things up by removing the right-rear wheel & drum and did something-er-other (I forget exactly). Since then I just put a sticky note on the e-brake pedal not to use it. Thinking that won't pass inspection very well though.
Is it likely the cables need to be replaced? If so, it's a little confusing on the year-range coverage. Some listings suggest that '89 - '91 is it's own thing. Other suggest '84 - '92 is all the same. Are right and left the same?
Any insight appreciated.
