Help! EPB woes
So I am thoroughly stick. Am changing the EPB shoes (the old ones had lost a retaining pin and spring clip, and had been binding so new set purchased.
Drivers side all assembled fine, but on the passenger side, whatever I do it seems that the disc won't go on. I can see the issue in that the shoes don't both touch the pivots at the big Spring end, there is about 5mm of space. But apart from that it looks exactly like the other side. Have taken apart and tried again multiple times.
Am following Bodsy guide so EPB is in maintenance mode as suggested and fuse is pulled.

Youi need to make sure that the adjuster are both fully off on both the wedges, slacken the allen bolt off on the shoe and push the wedge right back till it hits the shoe, you might need to do both side's.
