Rear caliper issues and fault code

My rear brakes were locked on after using handbrake and don't seem to release .

I've now stripped down , cleaned and greased slider pins and would the pistons back .
Noticed one Piston doesn't actually sit flush in the caliper !

I'm thinking new calipers .

Also noticed damage to the metal by rear speed sensor drivers side so cold that be the fault code on list ?

Will check this , they probably are original cables so will have a look. Hard to adjust?

The piston will have a gum around it and will be sticking

Wind it out, clean it up with some really fine emery paper and pop it back in and bleed the brakes. Shitty old fluid can cause it to be a bit w**k too
