RE: E-Brake not working. 16v

[Tim Ebling <tim@surreal.com>]

OR it's a bad rear caliper, don't forget about that!  The e-brake mechanism
in one of my calipers went kaput a few months back.  At the time I was told
that you couldn't rebuild it, so I bought a new one.  But there's been talk
on this list about rebuild kits for the calipers, try searching the
archives.
