did I brake something?

[rockyracoon]

I had my rear caliper off to replace a bad wheel sensor,and after I replaced the sensor and reinstalled the caliper I started the car up and put the car into drive(both wheels off the ground ) well the wheel I was working on wasnt moving but the other one was.

turns out I forgot to re connect the emer brake cable and the rotor was locked,which doesnt make sense to me,I would think if the cable wasnt connected the only result would be that the emer brake wouldnt apply.
maybe one of the pads was cocked a little,but getting back to the original question could the spyders have been damaged?

year, model of the car?

How about traction control? Both wheels off the ground spinning would activate the TC. TC will apply the brakes. I suspect that the brakes are not applying on the other wheel.

With the brakes being applied on one side and not the other, the limited slip diff allows the other wheel to turn.

Check the slider pins for galling/binding to the brackets.

both wheels off the ground will mess with the antilock brake system so bad it aint funny, turn off the t/c before you do it again, and both wheels should rotate.
