E-brake issue - drivers side only

[tri-pedaler]

Winter tires means e-brake u-turns on occasion. Just noticed that only my drivers side is locking. Would this be a slide pin greasing issue?

Bump - ideas on the e-brake issue?

Never hurts to check out the pins. I would compare pad wear in general between the two sides to see if its the same; if not you have a caliper issue. If you can get someone to assist, you could see if the cable is retracting the same on both sides when someone pulls the happyhandle.

Thanks. I’ve not done brakes yet as they were new when I got it 10k ago. do we have a traditional cable/drum e-brake? If so checking the cable adjustments sounds like a good starting point
