    without looking it could possibly be this

    if there are no leaks from brake pipes u must have a faulty valve on a calibre or master cylinder, instead of the brakes releasing its filling up with fluids will not allow whichever valve plunger to return, check back brakes as well, more than likely master cylinderwithout looking it could possibly be this

    if there are no leaks from brake pipes u must have a faulty valve on a calibre or master cylinder, if it got stuck on after it was smoking then the discs could be scorched and the pads have grooved there way onto the disc, you'll probably need a good garage to resovle it
