Hi I have a 1989 bmw 535i automatic transmission and the front right brake keeps locking up on me so I tried changing the calper and the ABS module but it still locking up on me any suggestions on how to solve this problem?

The brake hose is likely degraded on the inside try taking the hose loose from the caliper next time if its locked to see if it frees up if so you have a bad hose.

And I agree as well, replacement of all the brake lines would be in order. ALL OF THEM
