I have a vauxhall zafira gsi 53 plate the rear driver caliper handbrake does not work properly the handbrake comes on but then does not release fully the mechanism on the caliper works fine as had the cable off but the cable seems very stiff to pull out also when the handbrake is on i can still spin the wheel it is very hard to spin the wheel but i can spin the wheel none the less

I would be thinking that the hand brake cable will be seized, this is a common problem.
