Angry 2000 ZR2 front brakes will not disengage?

The front brakes on my blazer are engaged? Pulled the ABS fuses thinking maybe it was the module, no results... pads and rotors are new... Any help

Re: 2000 ZR2 front brakes will not disengage?

Open bleeder and if they release it is pressure build up.
Check front brake hose or crack open brake line in front of brake.

If bleeder open does not take off pressure it is a sticking caliper piston or slider pins.
Did you lubercate slider pins?
