I use trailers in my work and horses, and have found you might need to take
it apart to inspect dirt or rust preventing the travel of the shoe. On rare
occasions your brake controller will be the problem, however, I have seen
them go out and lock both brakes, not just one. This might happen if you
are wearing one shoe faster than the other and the other shoe is not fully
engaging causing only the one shoe to grab. In any case, a quick inspection
of the brakes would put you at ease, and go a long way to identifying the
problem. Chris

Not MSAR relevant except that it concerns readiness for safe emergency
response.
This is a dual axle trailer with electric brakes that hasn't been used
for months (winter) and now is not 100%. One brake is locking up at
the slightest touch of the brake pedal that actuates the brake lights.
Could this be a wiring fault? Or could some object be embedded in the
brake pad? Or?
Anyone have relevant experience?
