    Stranded NorCal, my brakes seem to be locked?

    Just left pnp. My brakes seem to be locked up I can't move really at all now, I accidentally started it in gear with the e-brake on, could be part of the issue? What should I do besides call a tow?

    You tried reverse I imagine? Bounce the rear up and down while slowly trying reverse. Takes 2 people - shoulder tap someone.

    Will need a rig with a stinger to reverse tow you if you cant get it unstuck. Make sure to mention that.

        Seemed like it was all 4, last night the brake light sensor came unbound and I over tightened it, it's rolling free now so I think I'll be able to make it home, lol I feel like a derp

          Good to hear. Cool heads and a step by step approach is important in these situations.
