Car has been laid up awhile with the handbrake applied.

Hand brake arm on caliper sticks in on position unless given a whack

Any quick fixes for this or is it a new caliper?

Unless you have some really special tools , a permanent repair is unlikely.
A fiendishly complicated design with a fatal flaw.
Even a new one needs the DENSO treatment to prolong its life.

The caliper had less than 1000 miles on it before the car was parked, brakes work perfectly, it’s just the mech that sticks, hoped some backwards and forwards might do it

If anyone has a good one left me know
